Accessing old blog
-
I had Mortgagemadeclear.wordpress.com a few years ago. i havent accessed this site in years but want to bring it back. the only email addresses i’ve had for this are (email visible only to moderators and staff) and (email visible only to moderators and staff), but for some reason when typing those in under ‘Forgot Password’, wordpress says there is no account with those. and when i type ‘mortgagemadeclear’ it tells me an email with new password was sent, but nothing in either of my emails. i dont have any of the ‘proof of ownership’ pieces but i’m hoping someone can at least still help me out? i had to make this whole new account ‘mortgagemadeclearblog.wordpress.com’ just to find a way to ask for help :P Thank you!

Did you check your email client spam filter? Are you using Gmail? See here https://en.support.wordpress.com/email-notifications/gmail-issues/
That’s unfortunate because Staff cannot and will not breach the privacy policy and if you cannot provide Account Recovery Staff with proof of ownership you have reached a dead end.
There are three questions you need to answer yourself:
1. What is the exact URL of the wordpress.COM hosted site in question?
2. Exactly which wordpress.COM username account registered it?
3. Exactly which email address was used when wordpress.COM username account was registered.
Every WordPress.COM blog has a sole owner. It is the person with the WordPress.COM username account who registered the blog under that username account and a single associated email address, and who is the original Admin of the blogs registered under that username account.
You have to be logged in as Admin http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#administrator under the exact same username account that registered the blog to access the blog’s dashboard.
Clicking this link should display all blogs registered under the same username account, including the hidden ones: https://dashboard.wordpress.com/wp-admin/index.php?page=my-blogs&show=hidden
If you do not see the blog here http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/ then
follow this guide > http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/#my-blogs-dashboard-visibilityIf the log-in information is lost visit https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword
If you check each and every possible email address and account and are not successful gaining access to the blog(s) then please complete the form for account recovery at this link https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=recovery and submit it to the Account Recovery Staff, and provide proof ownership, so they can contact you by email ie. not on these public support forums which are available to everyone with internet access.
