  I am not receiving a confirmation email to activate my blog so I can get started. Having reviewed your forums I see that I am not the only person with this issue.

  Looks like something WordPress should take a little more seriously.

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

  Check in your email spam filter and under your “social” tab in your gmail account please, if you use it. https://en.support.wordpress.com/email-notifications/gmail-issues/

  I’m having the same issue, please advise…

  Can’t verify my gmail account because the emails aren’t being sent through. I even tried to create a new account to no avail.

  Hi sandrameret, I just sent you an email to help you confirm your email address. Please let me know if you don’t receive that email from me!

  @predilectionx — Please check the email address in your account settings and make sure it’s correct. When we send the confirmation email to you, WordPress.com is receiving an error that the email address on your account doesn’t exist.

  Very odd, I did check it in the settings and it is correct. I’ve used that email address for years. I will retype it in just for good measure.

  @khardy5 — Please start a new forum thread with your question. Posting into an existing thread can cause confusion and make it harder for staff and volunteers to find new questions being posted for help. Thanks!
