lost password - have had to change my name

Options
Hi

Can any kind person tell me if it's possible to keep my original online name? I forgot my password and the email address I used is no longer available to me as it was a former workplace.

Many thanks,
Dee

    Hi,

    found this in FAQ's, might help.

    What if I change my e-mail address? Back to Top

    You can remove your old address by doing the same as in the question "How do I stop getting the email?" above then entering your new email address, ticking the "Get It" button and clicking "Go".
    If this doesn't work, you can contact [EMAIL="webmaster@moneysavingexpert.com"]webmaster@moneysavingexpert.com[/EMAIL] and request the change. Please ensure you include the original e-mail address in the message.

    Could you change your name slightly when you open a new account.
    Wheni first registered here i chose the name Sailor Sam, but forgot my password aand then messed up, so joined again as SailorSam (without a space)
    Maybe you could use your same name but in lower case.
