Subject: De linking and re-linking gamertag

Is there a way to take my original gamertag and move it over to my new account? Stupid xbox.com gave me a fresh tag.

Well don't I feel like chicken-blam!-. Thanks....Why isn't that first one pinned? Unless I'm blind. Okay, I'm in a bit of a pinch...I kinda put a bullet in my console a few months back.

I believe Duardo's FAQ superseded it.

Great question, that would be a super useful thread to pin. We've been getting that question a lot recently.

^AH, yes.

The FAQ is great and all but linking needs to be segregated. Okay, I'm in a bit of a pinch...I kinda put a bullet in my console a few months back.

You can do it all from Xbox.com. Just log in with the email and password associated with your gamertag and do it from there.

So I need to do this for both accounts.

Yes, just log into xbox.com with the email that your gamertag is CURRENTLY connected to, change that, then log into your new gamertag and change the email connected to that with your bnet email. That's the goal of this whole process, to link your new gamertag with your bnet email, but you've got to unlink it from the current gamertag first.
