  The blog was started by and paid for by a previous employee who thought he had transferred all the admin rights over to myself and our employer when he left. Although we can edit and post everything on the blog page it appears when the renewal notice arrives it still goes to this previous employee. How can we change this so that the next renewal notice will arrive with to my employer?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hello there,

  First step is to make certain that the blog’s original owner is no longer listed as the owner of the site. Click Users → All Users and make sure his name isn’t listed.

  If he’s still there, he’ll have to transfer ownership:

  If he is not on the Users list for the site, make sure your Administrative contact information is correct for the WordPress.com site. Please see the following:

  If your notifications are domain-related, rather than site-related, you may also need to confirm he transferred ownership of the domain name. In your site’s Dashboard, click Store → My Domains. Then click edit and make sure the domain contact information is up-to-date.

  I hope this helps! Let me know if you have further questions! Best wishes to you.

  Thanks for that.

  I think the My Domains will have totally sorted the issue.

  Thanks again
