  Hi, My new site can’t accept my preferred log in email address as it already is active for another site, but if I delete this other site, then I will not be able to use this email address for 30 days for my new site. Is there anything that can be done.

  What is the URL of the site you’re trying to access?

  Hello,

  The new site created is https//www.reflectivecoachingsolutions.wordpress.com.

  But, I want to place another log on email, which I realised is already in use for another site, which I have never used and will need to be deleted, however, if according to WordPress, if I delete that site, then I cannot use that log in address for 30 days for my new site.

  The email address is associated with the account, not with the site. You can have multiple sites under one account. If you, however, already created the site under another account and you just want to change the email address, you will first need to log into the old account. There, you will change the email address to some other, disposable one. This will free your desired address and you’ll be able to use it with the new account.
  After you’re done, you can go ahead and delete the old account.
  I hope it makes sense :)
