Can't change username
-
I accidentally created another account with the username I wanted [redacted by staff]. I then realized it was possible to change usernames, so I didn’t even need to make a new account in the first place! I then changed [redacted by staff] to a different username. Next, I went back to my main wordpress account [redacted by staff] to change the username to [redacted by staff], but it says the username is already taken! What can I do in this situation?

Nothing. Once you change your username you will not be able to change it back and the old name will not be available for anyone else to use. http://en.support.wordpress.com/change-your-username/

Hello,
I have book domain (http://webmatriks.com/) on WordPress , however, my dashboard is missing the plugin tab on the left menu. Therefore, I’m unable to use any cool plugin features. Please help! -

You have posted off-topic into this thread which has nothing whatsover to do with plugins at all. Please create your own threads rather than posting off-topic. https://en.forums.wordpress.com/?new=1 -
Is there any way that I can contact WordPress to ask them to help me out? There has to be someway that I can get my correct username that no one is currently using.

I flagged this thread for a Staff response some time ago now. Please be patient while waiting.

I’m sorry, but you cannot change your username into an existing username.
Instead, you can transfer all of your blogs to the desired account: http://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-a-blog/#transferring-your-blog-to-another-user-or-account
