    Transfer gamer tag to my son


    Hi, ive read several threads from 2017 and 2019, which appeared to be unresolved and i am in the same position; i want to find out if microsoft has done anythimg to resolve this yet. I set up the xbox live account for my son years ago, using my microsoft
    account; im not a player, he is. he’s now grown up, and we want to transfer his gamertag, progress, licences, dlc to him; as stated by the fristrated folk before; surely this situation happens millions of times per year?

    To be clear, i want and NEED to retain my Microsoft account, with its email address; i have too many other things dependent on that. Is there now a way to transfer the gamertag and all its associated progress etc; and if not, why not ?

    :)

    Does my son's gamer tag stay on my account?

    can I transfer the gamer tag to his own email?

    When you say "Microsoft account" are you referring to your email account associated with the Gamertag?

    Maybe this link can help?

    https://beta.support.xbox.com/help/...nt/change-email-sign-in-for-microsoft-account

    However, as mentioned before there isn't a way to just give the gamertag to someone else. But I feel that the link I provided may help.

    If you need help or want to speak to someone who can help you better understand and walk you through it you can contact support via https://beta.support.xbox.com/contact-us

    The same answers given back then, would apply now. Nothing can be transferred between accounts. If he creates a new account, he will start over fresh.

    Converting offline account to Live account

    After just letting it sit for a while, I was finally able to transfer the useless gamer tag created all those months ago to another account. "Aha!" I thought. "Progress!" Then, I logged into my son's offline account, chose the "Join Xbox Live" option...only
    to be told the account is already associated with another gamer tag. So, I go online, log into the bogus account, and the gamer tag was successfully transferred to it. Log out, log into son's account...and gamer tag shows up there, too. So, after almost
    three months STILL no resolution. And, I feel your pain, Ken8n...it's been suggested to me to give our 12 year old unfettered access through an adult account, too. Not gonna happen.

    Today I lost my love of Microsoft

    It is not the first time the gamer tag was changed. It was my account tried to change it to my sons with his gamer tag not mine.
