Want blog deleted, can't log in or recover password, associated email deleted
-
This is in regard to an older wordpress blog of mine.
The url is:
https://gandalfthepurple.wordpress.com/If you google my name the result shows up. This is a concern for me. I’d like to get the blog deleted. The problem is that I deleted the email that I used to set up the account a few years ago. And all passwords I tried didn’t work.
When I tried to recover the password, I didn’t have any of the info they needed (eg two factor authentication codes) as those would be in the email that I used for the account, which again, has long ago been deleted.Any ideas for how I can get the account removed or my name taken off from the about page or anything that would help me out?

Account recovery is not done on these public support forums. Complete the form for account recovery at this link https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=recovery and submit it to the Account Recovery Staff so they can contact you by email ie. not on these public support forums which are available to everyone with internet access. Note that you will need to provide proof of ownership of that account.

The problem is that it asks for “proof of ownership”, and gives three options which would count as proof, for example authentication codes, but there’s no way I could get that info without accessing the email I used to set up the account, which again has been deleted.
So the recovery process isn’t helpful. -
I’m sorry but unless you can provide proof of ownership to the Account Recovery Staff you cannot get access to the site.
