Delete accidental account
-
I registered a new account with the right username and wrong email. I can’t correct the email because I can’t do the email confirmation step. Could you delete that broken account and rename this account to the right username.
Right username: goto-go-trainer
Right email: (email redacted)
Wrong email: (email redacted) – gmail doesn’t allow ‘-‘ in their email addresses -
I can’t do the email confirmation step.
Every WordPress.COM blog has a sole owner. It is the person with the WordPress.COM username account who registered the blog under that username account and a single associated email address, and who is the original Admin of the blogs registered under that username account. You can create one gravatar for every username account that applies to all blogs registered under the same username account and email address.

https://en.support.wordpress.com/email-notifications/There is a single email address that can be used on only one wordpress.COM username account and not on any others, regardless of how many blogs are registered under that username account.
The wordpress.COM blog’s owner can change the relevant email address on their accounts page at https://wordpress.com/me/account at any time.

The instructions you gave suggest I log in and change my email setting. I can’t do that because I cannot fully log in. Instead I get the message: “Your account has not been activated. We sent you an email with a link to activate.”
Similarly, I can’t access the activation email message because it was sent to an email address that doesn’t exist.

Good Morning – I’m sending a note to the (correct) email address you’ve provided. Please let me know if you do not receive that email. Thanks :)
