  I registered with WordPress some years ago with AskAnyMom – that email was tied to the email (email visible only to moderators and staff). I have since deleted that email all together and so cannot recover nor reset the password to access the acct. How can I go about recovering those blogs and those names?
  Blog url: http://askanymomdotcom.wordpress.com/

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

  In order to help you get access to your blog Staff need one of the following things in order to correctly identify you as the blog owner:

  1. an email from the email address associated with the account or revealing what that associated email address was
  2. the wordpress.com API key for your account. This was included in your welcome email with a note to keep it safe. Please do not post the API key here.
  3. if you have purchased any upgrades for the blog a transaction number send it to the email address I posted above.

  As you will need Staff help I have flagged this thread for their attention.

  Hello,
  I don’t have anything from the old account other than what the email address associated with it was.

  the email address was (email visible only to moderators and staff) – I have since deactivated it with google. I have no way of recovering anything from that email address. I never purchased any upgrades for the account and because its deactivated, I dont have the API

  The blogs were the FDI Mom and AskAnyMom location would have been Yorba Linda, CA or North Orange County CA

  Hey there,

  To make any account changes, we require verification of account ownership through the information requested by @timethief. This ensures that our user’s privacy is protected.

  If you don’t have access to any of the information requested by @timethief, I’m afraid there’s nothing we can do.

  Best,
