Hiya, I am going to be renewing my gold membership soon, I was wondering if when I do I can change my name for free, but keep all my stats/gamer points/friends/DLC. I wont pay the $10 to change it, but I want it changed but i'll keep it the same name if I have to lose all of my stuff, thanks, any help is appreciated.

"You can easily change your Xbox LIVE gamertag. If Xbox LIVE automatically created your gamertag, the first change is free. All other changes cost 800 Microsoft Points." from xbox support website.

Are you asking if you can make a whole new gamertag with a new subscription and transfer all your DLC stuff over? I think thats a no.

I can't believe that microsoft costs a person 800MS($10) to change your name, that is a complete rip-off seriously.

you can change your gamertag but only for 800 MS points($10) the only way to get new gt for free is make new account and no your friends?gamerscore and rep do not transfer over with a new account. if you pay 10 bucks every thing will stay the same and nothing excpt your gt will change if you make new account game saves will not work with that account but i think DLC will but you need to authorize he account on xbox.com

It's been a year now since I got sick of my gamertag but I won't pay a buck for changing it... even though I feel stupid every time I look at it :(

Well yeah, people wouldn't make up their minds anyways and plus people need to think of what name before they put it in.
