Hey All,
I noticed that once you get a verification badge, it says that if you change your username or display name, you won’t get it back. I have a friend who’s verified and would like to change his username without losing the badge, and I’ve gotten mixed responses on whether that’s actually true.
If any Roblox staff could confirm this once and for all, that’d be greatly appreciated as this is a very important decision for him.
Thanks!

I’m pretty sure if you change your username/display name, you’ll lose it, but if you email Roblox Support afterwards they can give you it back.

Your badge will automatically be revoked if you do any of the following after you receive the badge:
- You change your display name or username
- You disable Authenticator on your account

I see, do you have any source on this?
Yeah I understand that, I’m just not sure if they will give you it back if you meet the requirements during the next verification wave. Any idea on this?
What if I don’t want the badge?
Your badge will automatically be revoked if you do any of the following after you receive the badge:
- You change your display name or username
- You disable Authenticator on your account
How do I re-enable the badge?
If you previously had a badge, but had it removed for non-policy violating reasons, you can contact Customer Support to request a badge re-grant. Before contacting Customer Support, please make sure that:
- Authenticator is enabled
- ID Verification is done
- User and display names are the same as when you originally received the badge
Thanks for the source. However, I’ve seen people who have gotten the badge and told me they’ve changed their usernames more than 3 times and still got it back so if there are any official staff members who can confirm this or anyone’s in contact, that would be greatly appreciated.
I’m sorry to inform you, but no staff member is going to visit this post and confirm anything. I literally just gave you the answer to your question and gave you a credible source by Roblox.
If you change your username, you get it removed. You can contact Roblox support to get it back again. It is that simple.

I asked support to give me back my verified badge after I changed my username and they told me I needed to change my username back to what I had when I got verified

Did you do that recently? I notice you still don’t have the badge
Hello, sorry for being late but what part of support did you contact?
I can’t seem to find a category that fits the issue.
Sorry I don’t remember which category I picked. I’d pick moderation or technical support.

Just the description is important
