I don't take any responsibility if you get in trouble, or your actions. You've been warned. (Please use at your own risk) Thank you ~
Credit goes to Corrupted? on HackForums ~

1) Sign onto LOGIN.LIVE.COM , edit your last name to match a part of your gamertag. (It must be a believable last name otherwise they'll be suspicious.)
Example: Lets say my gamertag is Package420, I'll go on there and change my last name to "Package" (Michael "Package")
2) Call 1-800-4MY-XBOX (if you're not in the US, please look on XBOX.com for your area's number.)
3) Press '2' for Xbox LIVE then 0 to speak to a repersenative.
4) Once talking to a representative, tell him your name (Michael "part of your gamertag")
5) Tell him/her that you have some personal identifying information in your gamertag.

(it's against the TOC to have personal identifying information on your account, and they pretty much have to let you change it) If they don't let you change it, hang up and try again until they do.)

It is up to you to make yourself a good liar, if you have numbers say it is part of your SSN or your Credit Card. If you have a gamertag like 'PWNSTAR', say that is your Credit Card number and you think a hacker might guess it.
Please read above, I don't take any responsibility for what you do.
Thanks for looking at this topic, and I hope you all have a great day ~

This is a great idea. I don't have an Xbox but it's good for those who do.
 
next up from nic: how to call sony to get free customer service.

thanks for these threads/tips, but i feel like all these things are just underhanded exploits of many company's good/decent customer support. on top of that, i feel these could be consolidated into one "neat tricks" thread you could update when new tips/tricks pop up/are necessary to share.
 
No problem guys, I'll eventually tell people how to get paid applications from Apple for free.
