  Dear All,

  I have an account with wordpress with the following blogs registered to them http://www.thephotographerstent.wordpress.com and http://www.liverpoolahhazen.wordpress.com

  I haven’t used them in a while but now want to pick up from where I left off. I’m sure of the correct username but when I request a new password in order to access my account the new password doesn’t reach my e-mail, I’m positive the email address is the same one I use now. I was able to access an old account recently which to me looked as though it had been hacked as the username had been altered without my doing. I’ve since changed that username and I’m able to get on here to ask these questions. This is all rather messy but what I’d like to know is if there is anyway I can find out how I can access my old blogs?

  Many thanks,

  Christian

  WordPress.com accounts cannot share email address, so the email address is different from the one on your christianmgpetersen account.

  The email address which owns that blog is eig[…] (at) hotmail.com

  Do you have access to that email address?

  I have a similar situation. I created a blog with the username quickdrawl
  the blog is wardhammond.wordpress.com
  I can’t seem to access it no matter what I do
  Can you give me a hint as to the email address associated with it?
  Thanks.

  i’m logged in a quickdrawl8 simply because i couldn’t access my old account and needed a new identity to even begin to resolve this issue.

  quickdrawl8, that blog is registered to a web[…] (at) hotmail.com email address.

  The username is not quickdrawl.
