if im not mistaken, the number behind is due to the original gamertag already taken by others, mine also got ###, but there is other people without that (original gamertag).
in my case I am the owner of two identical gamertag, both with and without the #.
abc and abc#001 for example.
I already changed abc to something else on my old ID. So now abc is free to be taken out by my second ID.
HOWEVER
Their system is dumb enough when I check for abc using my abc#001 id to change into abc (that is now free), the system say it is already the same gamertag.
So kalau nak change the gamertag i need to change my abc#001 into something else first, and then change back into abc. Which means microsoft willc harge me 2x for ID change because their system dumb dumb.
