Members receive a free character name change once every 28 days. If you'd like to change your character name more frequently, you can redeem a Bond for an instant name change.
Before you redeem a Bond please be aware that:
- Your name will change on both your RuneScape and Old School profiles.
- You must be a member to use this feature - if you're not a member the bond will still be used & the name change won't be given.
- If you can change your name via your members free name change, you will be prompted to select a new name and the Bond will not be redeemed.
