  Hello,

  I’m about to clean up my online accounts. I figured that I have two wordpress.com accounts. I would like to delete this one permanently along with all its content.

  Thank you very much & Best Regards

  I wish to permanently delete my online account too, but there is no way to make contact with WordPress to ask them to do it. Every time I try to ‘Contact Us’ it’s just a loop that sends me to the same page. I can’t contact WordPress no matter how I try to do it.

  What happened was that I already had a sign-in ID to post comments on blogs, and had forgotten it was associated with WordPress.
  So when I tried to create an account, I started off with another ID with the same email address.

  I don’t want this one because now I can’t just post comments on blogs. I always have to sign-in first, and that didn’t happen before.

  It clearly isn’t correct to have 2 sign-ins on one email address, but it was much easier to start it than it is to get rid of it

  So when I tried to create an account, I started off with another ID with the same email address.

  That shouldn’t be possible because your email address is your unique identifier here. https://en.support.wordpress.com/email-address/

  If you no longer have access to your first account, you could try changing the email associated with your current account. After that is successfully changed, you can try to recover your first WordPress.com username account.

  Let us know how that goes or if you wish to receive assistance from Staff directly, please return to the forum thread and add the MODLOOK tag to the Tags section in the sidebar.

  Hello, not sure if anyone will see this but I need help if possible.

  Yesterday I created an account but I need the email changed, because it is a work email that will soon not be available anymore.

  I wanted to keep the subdomain however.

  Please let me know how I can delete the old email address and associate the username and password under a different email address.

  I won’t be able to access the new email address (a gmail account that I can’t access while I am at work) for a few days. So I realize I wouldn’t be able to access the subdomain dash until I could access the new gmail email account for authorization emails etc.

  Thanks if you can help.
