  Hi, I used to use mikebeckham.wordpress.com. I no longer remember the login details for the site, I may have used an old email address I no longer use. I have tried to get access to the site, but can’t figure out the login details. I can prove my identity but am keen to delete the site as it has a lot of stuff on it from when I was younger. Please let me know. thanks

  Hi there:

  You will need to use the Account Recovery form to prove ownership of the site, then WordPress.com support can help you from there. You can find that form here:

  https://wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=recovery

  Just fill out as much information as you have including an email address where Support can get in touch.

  You can read more about what the account recovery process entails here:

  Hope that helps!

  Hey, I tried that form but I don’t know the “proof of ownership codes” etc and it will not allow me to submit without it. I haven’t used the site in over a decade. I can name old email addresses and supply government ID. But I can’t use that form to do that.

  Hey there,

  If you are unable to fill out the form, please contact our Account Recovery Team directly at passwordhelp@wordpress.com with that information.
