  Hello. Several years ago; I studied abroad and made a blog on here to share some things with people back home. I guess I didn’t have the two authentication with phone number set up because I can’t get that to work, and I no longer have access to the email that is on the account or that would have any of the id numbers you asked for. Is there anyway to gain that account back?

  Hey there, have you tried the steps listed here?
  https://wordpress.com/support/account-recovery/#account-recovery-form

  You will need some sort of proof of ownership, and there are several options listed there.

  If you need more guidance, can you send a link to your site?

  I didn’t ever purchase anything so no transaction ID and no longer have any access to the email account linked to it. My number has stayed the same, but i guess I didn’t have it linked as a recovery option because i never got a text when I tried to reset the password.

  That’s the link to the home page of all that I wrote.
