I NEED MY GAMERTAG CHANGED PLEASE

My name is Traisha h.



I need my gamertag changed it is offensive to me and my husband. It has caused problems in my marriage. I have windows 8 and when I sign into my computer it gave my a xbox live account and this name for it (SlobberyCone79).
I have been trying to change it for a long time. But my son was on my computer and saw the name. If you could help me change it that would be great.



Thank you truly

Traisha H.

I need my gamertag changed

Please don't make multiple posts for the same issue since you were answered in the last forums post

You will have to pay for the name change

The enforcement team is different from customer support the more practical person to change your name would be support but as they do not have the power like the guy said you cannot

Live life and play fair

Hey there Traisha!

You can change your Gamertag by getting on your Xbox 360 console and scrolling over to "Social" then click on your Avatar. Once you select your Avatar, scroll over to the right until you see the "Change Gamertag" option. Select that and then there you go!
If your account is less then 30 days old, it wont cost you a penny, but if it's more then 30 days, you will have to pay a $9.99 charge for a new Gamertag.

Sorry, but support gives the wrong information. No one on the forums can give you a forced name change. The enforcement team will only issue a forced name change if your name violates the code of conduct. They would then change it to another random tag.
Since yours does not violate the code of conduct, they would not give you a forced name change. You will have to pay to change the tag or create a new one.
