Multiple Gamertags on one Microsoft Account

ExceededAxis4 · Mar 15, 2016

So I just created a new Xbox Live account with an invalid email by accident and now I'm trying to switch it onto my pre-existing account that has two gamertag already. However when I try to reassign it to the account, it says that there is already an existing
account, even though I already have two on it. My question is how do I add a third gamertag on an account with two already?

HELP

changing email address associated with xbox

I was going to change my Gamertag's old Hotmail address to a new gaming themed one, but it is now all tied into one Microsoft account, so it would mean it would be updated for all my Microsoft products and not just my Gamertag. I didn't bother in the end.

Only 1 Xbox account can be connected to an email at a time. So the fact that you have 2 on one email is actually not supposed to happen. You would not be able to add the 3rd account.

I am having the same kind of situation.

My year subscription expired today and I attempted to log in and purchase it again, but some sort of "ghost" Gamer tag is coming up, and not the one that is on my console that I play all of my gamer as. I don't know what to do. I don't want to buy a subscription
for this FearfulWaters gamer tag when I use a different one. I don't know how this one was even created?

It won't let me renew on my console either. What should I do?

It does take some time to update all accross the system.

I suggest you restart your device, then open the Minecraft app and it should resync to the system with the new Gamertag.
