Lost access to Blog

    I established a wordpress.com blog over 10 years ago. I cannot access it because I have lost the password. I cannot get a password recovery link because I have lost the email a/c the blog is associated with and which the recovery link is sent to. There seems to be no support facility I can contact without being logged into my blog. But, I can’t log into my blog, as I have shown. I cannot complete the Account Recovery Form because, with the age of the blog and the fact that it was free, there was never a Transaction ID, or an Activation ID, or any Two Factor Authentication Codes, at least one of which the form requires before it can be submitted: can anybody suggest a solution?

    Hi there!

    If you’re not able to fill out the Account Recovery form, we won’t be able to help you regain access to the account. You can email our team at passwordhelp@wordpress.com for more information.
