Anyone know how to change the name it had given me?!

I have been looking at this as for some reason, my GamerTag is my real name

It would appear that the only place you can change your GamerTag is on the XBOX itself however there is the small matter that Microsoft also want the best part of £7 for the privilege!!!

Don't post reference numbers here.

If you want a different tag you'll have to pay the $10. It was changed due to a breach of the CoC. You do not get rewarded with free things for breaking the rules, sorry.

yeah in the past if your name violated the rules the enforcement team would not let you sign in til you create a tag that was not against the rules. but too many people were just creating tags as bad or doing something stupid and keeping the bad word/words
and just adding or changing a number on it. so now if your tag violates the rules they change it for you and YOU have to pay to change it to something else there is nothing you can do to get that changed for free.

I'm trying to change my classic gamertag which is the one you see in games. My classic gamertag got changed and my Xbox One and Xbox App gamertag stayed the same (the Xbox One gamertag is the ones they added with the new gamertag system).

My Xbox One gamertag is different to my in-game gamertag and I want my classic gamertag to be changed. You can only change your classic gamertag on the Xbox One console, I have tried using the other ways and you can only change your Xbox Gamertag, not your
classic gamertag.

The reason I want to change my classic gamertag is that the classic gamertag can be fifteen characters and the Xbox One gamertag can only be 12 characters. If I use the other ways to change my gamertag it limits me to 12 characters and sets both my gamertags
to that.

On xbox.com it says my gamertag is what i changed it to. But on xbox it shows my changed gamertag in games, but when i go to my profile it shows my old gamertag and right under it it shows the gamertag i did change it to.

You can
change your gamertag on your 360 and you can
change your gamertag on your Xbox One. Those are currently your only options.

Hi there,

Yes, changing the gamertag again should be possible, als changing back to your previous Gamertag is possible, as long as your original Gamertag isn't already taken by somebody else.

Keep in mind each change will require a payment.
