Charging for a gamertag change has been like this since day one. It's to prevent abuse of the system. You get your first gamertag change for free, so if you have created a new account, you can create your username at no cost.

Hello!

Thank you for your post .I understand you are experiencing an issue with you with a recent gamertag change. If you selected a gamertag but accidentally accepted the changes without verifying your change, you must pay the gamertag change fee to correct it.
Unfortunately, there is no way to edit a gamertag without paying for a change.

Can you allow me for changing mygamertag I didn't know it ?

Because for changing my gamertag I must pay 9,99€ for that while I didn't know that.
