    In most circumstances, this is not permitted.
    The only reason we will change your username is if it puts your privacy at risk. This usually means you've inadvertently registered using your name, email address or something that gives away your identity within your username.
    If you fall into this category, email [EMAIL="forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com"]forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com[/EMAIL] and request that it is changed, giving three alternative usernames in order of preference.

    Only other way to change it is to create a new username and forget about shunter64.

    With only 80 odd posts, I think that would be the most sensible option.
