  Hi

  I found it very difficult to find a way to contact wordpress but I have my identification on someones blog and they are saying things about me. Can you help with this?

  Here is the blog with my name and the lies: http://boomteamhq.wordpress.com/2014/06/

  Many thanks for any help you can suggest.

  Here is the support docs outlining wordpress.com’s policy on matters like this. The doc also contains a link to instructions on how to report such a blog if you believe they are transgressing those terms. http://en.support.wordpress.com/defamation/

  Well to be honest I’m not really too bothered, just didn’t think people where allowed to point dirty fingers at innocent people!

  I see wordpress have their backsides covered with the terms of service, so I’ve informed my solicitor but I think he’s still busy with his wine / lunch. I’ve reported the site via the wordpress advised route but I’ve probably not stuck to their requirements of figuring out which term of service this blog has violated… too much reading for one so uninterested.
