You need to call microsoft to ask them to remove your details, im not quite sure but i think your bank details are on the ms servers, if you decided to get a 360 in say 6 months time you could retrieve your tag but then im not sure if ms dele LIVE accounts if the account has been inactive for so long but this this could eb another question you could ask customer servicesNo Links in Signature by site rules - MSE Forum Team 20

if you think you may get another 360 in the future then just leave it as it is. as for removing your details. i've never tried but if they cant be removed they must at least be changable. so just change them to made up incorrect info. i never gave my real name and address, i made them up from the start. i also would never have paid for xbox live with a card. like i said though if you cant wipe the details you must at least be able to change them. so fabricate something. the address probably still has to be a real address though. so just pick out any address. with the email just create a new one online first and then put that in as your changed email and then never use it again. actually wont just deleting the profile do the trick? there is a recover gamertag option if you ever wanted it back in the future.0
