Transferring emails

SubZero iRoNiKz · May 24, 2014

Hello there. I have recently tried transferring my account details over from one email to the next due to my old email being redundant. I have tried many times to upgrade my account to gold again as it ran out, although it keeps telling me about the account
switch. Every time I try to go through the process, it tells me 'We aren't ready for you yet'. Apparently, I wont get an email relating to this until the 6th June 2014 which is utterly ridiculous. I'm just trying to switch the emails and get my live membership....

Any help will be appreciated, cheers.

Transferring Emails

So, long story short, I had my account recovered about 2 months ago my XBL after it was hacked. It currently has the @live.com email assossiated with it (a temp. email), and the XBL rep. told me to switch it when I could.

I created a new email solely for the account, but whenever I make a LiveID for the email it generates some random free membership Xbox Live ID and that prevents me from transfering my main account over.

My question is, how can I delete these 0 achievement, no membership, blank accounts, so I may transfer?

Hey there! What you'll want to do is
download this free account to your console and then
edit the WLID of that account to some other address. This will free up the WLID for use with your other account. Let me know if you have any issues along the way, thanks!

Hello ThreeShotSolid,

We use your billing email for all Xbox Live Rewards communication. To change this address, you will have to change your billing email from your Microsoft Account (https://account.microsoft.com/profile/).
It will be under the "Edit your billing info" option.

Hello, first it's a pleasure to be able to help you today.

My name is welcome to the community.

Hello Arbiter, unfortunately in such cases it is not possible to transfer all the contents of the account.

You can try a few things, the first would be to see with the carrier if they get the same phone number again, so they can receive authentication on the phone.

The second would be to try to exchange the security information when trying to log in to the account.

You can do this through the Microsoft Site by placing the email and then the password, when it asks for which number or email it sends the confirmation, you choose the option "I do not have", and will be given the option to exchange the security number, but this will freeze the account for 30 days, so that the system makes the exchange automatically.

And the third would be to try to recover the account by the form below.

I'm having the same problem, I want to transfer this gamertag to another email. The only problem is while trying to transfer I accidentally created a gamertag on the email I wanted the gamertag to be transferred to. So I followed the directions on the transfer
gamertag website. The email I now want to transfer my gamertag to is gamertag free, but when I try to transfer now I get Status code: 8016FE6D.
