xbox live gamertag email expired

Hi, I just got my new xbox one. I tried to get my gamertag from x360 but email account is expired.

How can I get my old gamertag?

Thanks!

:)

STOLEN XBOX

How do I log in to my expired XBOX Live account without a console? My 360 console was stolen, and the associated email has expired; since I haven't used it since I signed up for XBL Gold 5-6 years ago. I just logged in with a newer hotmail account (which
I thought was one of my Gamertag's email "proofs" [did I recycle my original email?]) and it pooped out the wrong Gamertag/Silver Account.

So, what is the process to recover my Gamertag with 47,000 points?

(No replacement console yet)

Hey there pioz83.

You should still be able to sign in with the e-mail tied to your Gamertag. If you're unsure of what your login information is, you'll need to fill out
this Form as best as you can. Let us know how it goes

Thanks. I verified that the email on the XBox One itself account and the one on the website are the same.

On the web, in the upper-right I see my gamertag () along with my email address. If I click on it and select "Subscriptions", I get taken to a page where under "XBox Live Gold" it says "Expires on 8/18/2020"

Hello Im Nic

When a Windows Live ID is not used for a long period of time, it is deleted. Problem is, an Xbox LIVE gamertag linked to the deleted Windows Live ID still thinks it is linked to a Windows Live ID. Even if a new Windows Live ID is created with the same email
address, it is not in return linked back to the Xbox LIVE gamertag. This makes it impossible to recover the gamertag or do anything with the gamertag that would require the Windows Live ID, including switching it to a new Windows Live ID.

For me personally, this problem is bad because I had assets in my Xbox LIVE gamertag that I can't get to now, but they're clearly visible when viewing my account from another account, so it's still there.

Using Live Messenger integration on the Xbox 360 console (even if you have no friends set up) will force the Windows Live ID (WLID) sign-in to remain active.

Using the WLID on a website (such as xbox.com, billing.microsoft.com) will also reset the expire timer

Only signing into Xbox Live itself on the console doesn’t reset the WLID timer; it’s the second login of Messenger that is counted.

If you are in the situation where the WLID has expired:

1) Do not perform an Account Recovery – No matter what level of troubleshooting is ever asked of you, by anyone, as doing this will strip access to the Xbox Live account because the Windows Live ID checks will fail.

2) Do not attempt to switch Windows Live IDs through the console – This will also fail with weird error messages

3) Do not re-create the Windows Live ID – Even though it will have the same member name (email address), it is NOT the same Windows Live ID, and Xbox Live will become even more confused, potentially breaking any account related to the new Windows Live ID
that has the same name as the one that is expired.

Saying that, you can get your email recovered here:

At my understanding this was set for the use of microsoft account, for services like outlook, where indeed says that you need to use it every two years. But the gamertag expires after 5 years, you can google it anywhere, there was a lot of news back on 2016.

I remember asking a long time ago to support what would happend if theres a gamertag but the email was expired. They said that the gamertag would remain there even there's no email.
