  Hi, I set up my wordpress with my personal email address, but I’ve just been locked out of my email address so I want to change the email address linked to my wordpress account but I’m worried if I try to change it I might end up losing access all together because I can’t access my old email to verify it. Do I need access to my old email to change this? Hope this makes sense.

  Thanks

  WP.com: Yes
  Jetpack: No
  Correct account: Yes

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to moderators and staff)
