  It might sound like a silly question, but is it possible to recover a previously deleted account from several years ago without providing any proof of past ownership? All I can provide is the URL of a blog that used to be on the account, a previous domain name that was mapped to said blog, and possibly the email domain that may be connected to the account now. I created a throw away email address (as you call it) when I decided that I no longer needed the account.

  Thanks

  Hi there,

  To give you access to an account we’ll need an email from the address on file for that account, the activation link that was sent when the account was created, or a transaction ID from a past upgrade on the account. Without one of those items we cannot give you access to the account under any circumstances.

  You can find more detail here:
