regaining an old wordpress account
-
I have an old wordpress account that I would like to use again, but no longer have the email address or password. Is there any way to fix this?

Hi. First of all, try the recovery method here (you can use either the username or email address):
http://wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpasswordIf it doesn’t work, contact staff at support@wordpress.com for assistance.

See the answer to your post from 5 months ago: https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/retrieving-discarded-blog-name?replies=9
If that does not help then you need to contact support when they come back (they are brain storming for a few days I think) : http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact/

Not an issue – sometimes I will look at the history – so far I think the block head award goes to someone that has ask questions 5 times and never left the URL even after having been ask each time and in some cases even replying to the URL request!
The tough ones are the “lost blogs” where they can’t remember anything other than they had one and forgot the email, since everything here works off the email – best of luck to her.

Thank you all for your help. I forgot that I had posted this question previously, and didn’t recall deleting the blog three years ago. I do still have the email address that I used, and thought that the blog was still ‘mine’.
Again, thank you!

If you still have the email address then things should be not to bad – if you have trouble with the lost password function then contact the staff – great people
