    Hi Mellow_x541! I hope you are well, delighted to be able to offer you my help!

    It happened to me a while ago.

    I tried restarting the Xbox and if it still hasn't changed, I clicked on the change gamertag option, entered my new name, and it changed it immediately without asking for another payment.

    I think it bought the gamertag change, but now it wants you to enter the same name to use it.

    Best regards,
    Daniel.

    Paid for gamertag change gamertag still hasn't updated

    Hey there!

    Nice to meet you! I'm Darhyl, an Independent Advisor. I'm sorry you are experiencing this on your purchased gamer tag. I am here to help.

    I understand that you are having problems with your newly purchased gamer tag. This issue can sometimes occur due to a delay in the Xbox Live Server updating your profile information. Kindly try to perform the following troubleshooting steps:

    1. Sign out of your Xbox account and restart your console.

    2. Sign in again and go to Settings > Personalization > My profile > Customize profile.

    3. Select your gamertag and press A to edit it.

    4. Confirm your gamertag and press B to save it.

    5. Launch any game and check if your gamertag is updated.

    You can also try to sign in to social.xbox.com to see if your gamer tag has been updated. If the old gamer tag is still showing up, try to proceed if you can change your gamer tag for free. Do not proceed if it will charge you.

    If it doesn't work, please reach out to Microsoft Xbox Support as they have the tools and resources to access your account and possibly fix your gamer tag on their end. You can contact them through this link:

    https://support.xbox.com/en-US/contact-us

    Thank you for your time. I hope you have a great day!

    Hello Seth_195,

    Thank you for your contribution to the Microsoft community.

    I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing issues with your gamertag change. I understand how frustrating this can be. Please note that it may take up to 24 hours for the gamertag change to take effect. However, if it has been more than 24 hours and your gamertag still hasn't changed, I recommend contacting Xbox Support directly for further assistance. They will be able to look into your account and help resolve the issue so there is nothing to worry about.

    3. If not, please select the country/region it is showing and select the correct one among the lists.
    4. Make sure to use to check the available contact times of the support.
    5. Select the "Contact Us" button
    6. Select the drop-down menu options that will match your concern.
    7. The next window will provide you with support articles based on your request and we recommend reviewing the relevant articles before selecting the "See contact options" button.
    8. On the final window, you will be presented with multiple options. We suggest selecting either the "Chat online" or the "Request a call" options to speak with someone. Be sure to provide as much detail as possible.
    9. If you cannot get connected to the support, please use the Virtual Agent and enter this exact phrase, "Talk to an agent".
    10. Should you be encountering issues contacting support, you may try InPrivate Window of your browser, other browser, different device/s or connect to different network.
