  I have an old school address on this account, my main account and I would like to use my gmail – (email visible only to moderators and staff) for this account but it will not let me change the email because I made a free account with my gmail on accident. Can you please help me merge them or something?

  Hello!

  WordPress.com does have a strict one-email/account policy, but if you remove your gmail address from your free account first, you can use it for your main account.

  Then if you want all your sites under the main account, you can transfer ownership of sites on the free account to the main account:
