DELETE my email from an old WordPress.com site
-
Your advice on this talks about how to CHANGE the email. I just want to remove my email from an old account where I don’t have the password. NOT change, delet, so I can use my personal email again for my own new WordPress site. Please

Hey there,
If you still have access to the email, you can regain access to the account. Just reset the password using the lost password link.
Then, you can either delete the account and wait 30 days for it to be completely removed from the system, or change the email address to free it up. You can use an alias if needed. There’s no way to delete the email without a waiting period, so I’d recommend changing the address instead.
One other option if you like the old username is to transfer your new site to the old account. Let us know if you need help with that.
