  Good Morning! I am having the same problem.
  I have received the email and verified it multiple times. Goes green and says verified but cannot post anything. Have asked them to send email again but not coming through.

  Thanks!

  Hi there,

  Sorry about that! According to our records, both of you (vmservicesdirect and boxsquaredconstruction) successfully confirmed your email addresses. I’m checking with our team to find out why you’re still getting that message to verify them. I’ll let you know as soon as I get an update about that!

  Hi workingtodomybitfortheworld and pinkstar04 — Thanks for letting me know, and I’m sorry for the trouble with this! I am waiting to hear back from our team about this issue and will let you know just as soon as I have a solution for this.

  This seems to be an issue specifically if you’ve recently changed your username. If anyone else changed their username and is also having trouble with this, please post here and I will let you know once I have news.

  If you didn’t change your username and you are still having trouble confirming your email address, please start a new forum thread and we can help you with that. Thanks!

  Hi everyone,

  Our team fixed up the issue you ran into, so you shouldn’t see the message asking you to verify your email address again. If you run into any more trouble with it, please let me know!

  I am having the same problem with cultphetus.wordpress.com. I continue to get a message requiring me to verify my email, which I do receive, and click the link which tells me I am now verified, but I still then get the same message telling me to verify.

  @haireephetus — Sorry for the trouble! I’m sending you an email to help manually verify your email since the regular process isn’t working for you. If you don’t get that email from me, please let me know!

  @bkumarind — I checked our records and the confirmation email is being sent to your Gmail address. Can you please try the tips on our Gmail Issues page to find that confirmation email? If you still don’t find those confirmation emails from WordPress.com, please let me know.
