I've lost my name!!!

Back in November I changed my forum name to SavingsNewbie. However, since the update of the website, I can only log in under my old name. I've no idea how to change my name back to SavingsNewbie. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

    At the moment you cant change your name from the original one you signed up with. I dont know if this will be getting changed or not. the only other way is if you register and start from new.

    Thanks for the info. Guess I'll have to get used to using my old name again :-(
  • Hi

    I have lost my name as well. I used to be Jac and now I am imported_jac. Is re-registering the only way to get my name back.

    Thanks
    Jackie
    Treat everyday as your last one on earth! and one day you will be right.
