  I am trying recover a wordpress account I created over a decade ago and using that to build from scratch. A lot of the content from that website has a lot of personal information I would like to take down. Is there any other way to provide proof of ownership other than the ones above? I believe I know the email attached to the account. I, however, no longer have access to it and why the password recovery option won’t work for me. If anyone can help me with this, I would greatly appreciate it!

  Hi kathlynnmalba, we really do need proof of ownership. Please email passwordhelp@wordpress.com with whatever proof of ownership you can muster (including a link to the site and the email address and what not) so our account recovery team can review the situation.

  I’ve replied to the email ticket you submitted, so I’m closing this thread as a duplicate.
