  1. Recover Old Gamertag


    Okay so, here is my problem.

    (The Gamertag was created on an xbox 360)

    I have an old gamertag which was linked to a very old email account, which unfortunately no longer exist. So it is impossible to access or recover.

    I knew everything about the no-longer existing account username password and gamertag associated with it. I've tried to recover it but when entered the address i get the message "This account doesn't exist". (or something like that) soooo....

    So my thinking was I would re-create the email account that was deleted and be able to access the old gamertag. This didn't work. When i did this it just made a new Live ID.





    Now i'm thinking if the gamertag isn't registered to the once deleted account what is it registered to? and if possible how can i get it back?

    I really want to play with the gamertag again with all its saved data and information unlocked achievements and friends.

    I no longer have the original xbox 360 that it was created on. Though i do have a 360 and an xbox one.

    Any help or information is appreciated.

    Thanks

    :)

  3. Recover old Gamertag

    I'm trying to use my old gamer tag, but I can't log into cause I don't remember the ID. I know what my password is and I have the gamer tag (Sleeping in Bed) but I can't find a way to figure out how I can find the Windows LIve ID. Seeing as I can't log onto
    it even thought it's on my profile select screen.

    You can try this or you can try contacting Official Support and they should be able to help you recover the old account so that you can still access it. You can reach them via

    Hey,

    I see that you're having trouble redownloading your profile levass4, I suggest you go to: http://microsoft.com , log in with credentials for levass4 and go here : https://account.microsoft.com/devices?fref=home.banner.devices&refd=account.microsoft.com

    You'll be able to see which devices your account is logged on and you can remove the account from those devices and log in on your Xbox.

    Hope this helps, cheers :D

    Good morning, Nozzle.

    I tried what you said but levass4 is not one of the options to add. When I click on add new and add levass4 it says it's already in use.

    Are you able to pull up my email *** Die E-Mail-Adresse wurde aus Datenschutzgründen entfernt. *** and delete the Whirlwind and add levass4 on our profile?

    thank you

    Dawne

    Recover old gamertag??

    like OK Fowl said

    1. you would need to start out at account.live.com/acsr and fill out that form. if you answer enough of the questions correctly then you should get an email from the account recovery team with a link to reset your password if you do not they will still send
    you an email letting you know you didn't provide them with enough information.

    this next step will only help if you still have a console that your profile was ever downloaded to previously if not then you would just need to keep filling out the form with enough information as you can.

    2. if you get the email that says you haven't provided the account recovery team with enough information then you can get ahold of xbox support by either calling 1800 4 myxbox or online chat at support.xbox.com/contact-us and they can do a password reset
    escalation. they will ask you some questions about the account and the console it was on previously (see above paragraph) and they will send that form to their escalations team and if you provided enough good information on that form they will send you and
    email to reset your password.

    Again if you don't have a console your profile was on previously then getting ahold of xbox support is not going to do you any good.

    each xbox has a unique identifier in the settings area and whenever your profile is downloaded to that xbox it will show up in microsofts system as far as the first date it was signed in and the most recent date it was signed in on that particular console.
    so the escalations team can look at that console id and part of the questionnaire is approximately the date your profile was first used on that console and last used on that console and if they think the dates are close enough and the console IDs match then
    they'll say ok hes given us enough info and send you a link to reset the password.

    Recover old gamertag.

    We only use *** Die E-Mail-Adresse wurde aus Datenschutzgründen entfernt. *** for microsoft. When we log in, Whirlwind is there. Not levasse4. Can you delete Whirlwind and add levass4. It says levass4 is already in use when we try to add it.
