  1. Xbox Gamertag Issue


    I am trying to change my gamertag and it says taken but no one has it. I was wondering if there was a way that you could recover the gamertag for me to use. Me and my friend are trying to start a clan for black ops 3 called the FRuT clan and I wanted to
    change my name to ItsTheBanana but is says it is taken. I search for the gamertag but it isn't taken. Just if you need to know my gamertag is L1LMAN_0x2 and I would love it to be ItsTheBanana. If you could do something that would be amazing.

    Thank You,

    George Ayers

    Unable to add son to xbox one

    I have this exact same issue, spent hours yesterday on chat support, it has now been escalated. I can create new gamertag's on the console but dont really want to lose my sons existing gamertag.

    You can't request a gamertag be freed up.

    If it says it's taken then there's nothing you can do.

    Gamertags are used on other services,not just xbox live & remember the system does not recognise things like spaces or capitol letters so ItsTheBanana would be the same as itsthebanana or Its The Banana.

    You will have to think of another tag.

    If it is connected to a zune account you will have to create a new WLID to make a gamertag. It makes you create a zune username which acts like a gamertag. I think you can try recovering with the email and password associated with the zune account. I'm not
    really sure if you can do that.

    The numbers (suffix) are given when you have the same gamertag as another account on the servers. So even though it has the numbers, it's considered the same time. You would have to change the current tag to something else and then change it back after the tag is freed up.

    GAMERTAG CHANGE

    The Xbox Policy Enforcement Team only issues forced Gamertag changes to Gamertags that violate the ToU and Code of Conduct. When a Forced Gamertag Change is issued, your Gamertag is converted to a randomly generated tag. I'd recommend just gathering up
    the $9.99 and paying for a change, since your Gamertag does not seem to be in violation of the rules, and I do not foresee a Forced Gamertag Change being issued for it.
