    Hi, I created a 2nd WordPress account in error and then deleted it. Before creating that 2nd account, I used my 2nd email to comment on blogs as a guest, however, I can’t do it anymore! WordPress won’t let me use my 2nd email to either comment or create another account! How can I ‘clear’ it? After all, I deleted that account – shouldn’t the email associated with it be available again?

    Hi there,

    Once an account is deleted it takes 30 days for all the data to be purged and the associated email address to be released.

    If you don’t want to wait for 30 days, you can reply to the account closure email we have sent you and then we’ll be able to restore that account.
