Question

If I changed my name already before and I want to change it back, how do I do that?

Community Answer

The exact same way you changed it the last time. Just go back into settings and change it again, it doesn't matter if you've already used that name before.

Question

Why does changing my ROBLOX username cost Robux?

Community Answer

Roblox LLC wants money. Recently, Roblox have been improving what costs robux and what doesn't, like game thumbnails are now free, but some things still have to cost robux, and if everything was free, Roblox would not make any money.

Question

Can I change my username to a name that's already taken?

Community Answer

No, you can’t. Two people cannot have the same username. You can change it slightly by including an "x" before or after the name, adding numbers, or making other minor adjustments.

Question

Is there any way to add a custom amount of Robux, like 1000? I don't want to get 800 and then another 400 Robux.

Community Answer

You'd need to buy Builders Club (BC) to purchase 1000. It will change purchases from 400 Robux to 450, and from 800 to 1000.

Question

How do I change my user name for free?

Elle

Community Answer

You can't. The only way to change your username is to pay with Robux. There is no hacks, and it's morally correct to pay.

Question

Is there any way to protect my account from getting hacked?

Elle

Choose a complex password (that you remember), don't share any personal information or passwords on any other apps, and don't play games that say "Free Robux" or anything like that.

You can try searching for empty public groups that are lying around, but unless you want them to have a certain title, you are out of luck there.

Question

Why is this so much though? 1000 robux? That is a lot!

Ix Compilations

Community Answer

It's Roblox's way of having their site funded. When you think about it more, its actually vital for them to make it so you have to pay for robux so you can then buy more things you want on the site.

If the "lots" you have on your robux balance is lower than 1000, then that is why.

How do I change my password with no robux and play PC games when I am on an iPad?

You can't change your username without robux. Don't give your password to people who promise to change your username, as some people are not to be trusted with your account.

Question

Can you change your username without robux?

Ix Compilations

Community Answer

You could, but it is a mighty insecure procedure unless you are being given 1000 robux for the name change. I have seen some people saying that they'll change your name for you, but that would require giving them your password, username and 2 step verification code if you have 2 step verification on. I'd recommend making a game that is fun for everyone, and has a good replay value so that if premium users play your game you'll get premium pay outs so you'll slowly or quickly get to the goal of 1000 robux.

If I change my username, can other people still find me by searching up my old name?

Yes. People will still be able to find you when they search your old name. Because under the person's new name, it will say "aka (original name)".
