  Please change my email ID from (email visible only to moderators and staff) to (email visible only to moderators and staff) as I unable to do so using the windows version as well as the App. I did create an account by mistake from the new ID which I then deleted but it still doesn’t let me change my email ID. Please help me with it at the earliest.

  WP.com: Yes
  Correct account: Yes

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there:

  I did create an account by mistake from the new ID which I then deleted but it still doesn’t let me change my email ID.

  That’s correct. The account you created (and now deleted) will have locked the use of that email address until the 30-day waiting period has passed for deleted accounts when that information is fully purged from our servers.

  Unless you reactivate that account by replying to the email sent after you deleted the account, you will need to wait 30 days. If you do reactivate the account, you can update the email to something other than the two emails you mentioned, close the account, then change your email on this account.

  I hope that clarifies things! Let us know if you have any questions.
