    Hello, I lost access to the original email account that owns my website gerliinerin.mn.

    Because of new google policy that the google mail that was registered was deleted and i currently have the editor access to the website

    I currently have access to the site as a user, but I am not the administrator.

    I can provide proof of ownership (domain, content, identity).

    Please help me recover or transfer ownership to my current account.

    Thank you.

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

    As you have a paid plan, simply use the Transaction ID to restore access – https://wordpress.com/support/account-recovery/#transaction-id

    Hi @essencelight123! Thanks so much for letting us know about this.

    Just as staartmees mentioned, you can try our account recovery method and share your traction here:

    https://wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=recovery

    Also, feel free to email us directly at help@wordpress.com, where you can share the screenshot, and we’d be happy to continue helping you privately from there.

    Looking forward to hearing back from you

    Thank you very much, I emailed the screenshot of the transaction and also explained my situation in the email. I also did fill the recovery 3 days ago but still didn’t receive any response yet.
