Hi,
Just to be sure, did you follow the steps mentioned here? http://en.support.wordpress.com/change-your-username/#change-username
I just tried it (without actually changing my username) and the option page showed up correctly.

Hi Hafizr,
Yep – They’re the instructions I was following.
Hmm.. Just tried it again – same thing.Each try has been using Chrome – I’ll try another browser & see whether it makes any difference.
Many thanks,

That looks like some kind of a bug to me. Thanks for providing the detailed info and screenshots, I’ll notify the Staff and see if they can check what happened. Please be patient while waiting, when they have something they will post on this thread.
