  1. Multiple Inactive Gamertags - Would Like to Acquire


    I have found numerous accounts on xbox that have 0 gamerscore and appear to not have been used since the original xbox days. I was wondering why these gamertags were not made available previously and when the next release will be if ever. I can provide examples
    if needed but would appreciate any feedback, thank you.

    :)

    Multiple Inactive Gamertags - Would Like to Acquire

    Hi, I know that a gamertag must be inactive for 5 years to be eligible to be released- one thing to note, however, is that the gamertag may possibly have been in use on other Microsoft services besides Xbox within the last 5 years, and that would make the
    gamertag ineligible to be released. The gamertag would only be released if that account doesn't sign in within a 5-year period.

    Gamertag from inactive account

    Once a gamertag is acquired MS will not release the gamertag until that account has been completely inactive with anything to do with MS not just the xbox for 5 years from the last date that it was used. Keep in mind even if it may seem like a gamertag
    is inactive on the xbox console that does not mean that the MS account associated with that gamertag is not being used in something else associated with MS.

    Microsoft have recently updated their terms and it is now 2 years of inactivity and they will shut down the account.

    Would like gamertag of inactive account.

    Hi there,

    I'm afraid there is no way to request that.

    The only thing you can do is wait until the GT (Gamertag) becomes avaliable, which is unknown when this will happen or choose a different GT

    Is there anyway I can check how long the accounts been inactive or how long until the name will be reset?
