  What steps did you take to change it? Since you say that it won’t let you, are you getting an error message when you try? Is something else happening?

  Companies, groups, organizations, etc. do not own blogs. Every WordPress.COM blog has a sole owner and it is the person with the WordPress.COM username account who registered the blog under that username account and their associated email address.

  The blog’s owner must be logged in as Admin http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#administrator under the exact same username account that registered the blog to access the blog’s dashboard and change the associated email address.

  Use the guide here https://en.support.wordpress.com/email-address/

  Thanks both of you!
  TimeThief, I was just reading a response you made to someone else a while back. (2 wordpress sights perhaps) I think I am logged in correctly, and I don’t think I have another site with that email address in it’s settings .. but I am going to go back and check now.
