4/5 months ago, I changed ISP which meant notifying message boards etc, that my email address had changed, no problem. A few days ago, I moved from dial-up to broadband which meant another email change. I notifed all concerned.
I had success notifying talktalk/18866/1899/net4nowt & MSE and am able to post on the latter two.
When I visit www.ispreview.co.uk/ or www.SAYNOT0870.COM or www.worldstart.com it says "welcome islandman", however should I wish to contribute to the post, a box appears stating that "Islandman, you do not have permission to access etc". I have notified each of the companies and there has been some response, giving me new password identification, but still there is no success. Could it be they are checking up on me, due to frequent email address changes ?.
It had occured to me that it might be an idea to re-register with new ID, what do you think, or should I give it a few days. Whatever I decide, with your imput, might be delayed because for whatever reason, I am unable to access www.e7even.com today, consequently cannot access emails.

This probably won't help you now, but in future it may be an idea to use a web based email service like gmail or hotmail when signing up for boards.Sometimes i surprise myself by being right.0

And some (most?) email accounts allow you to continue to collect email, even though you've changed ISP.
I'm still collecting my Blueyonder email 4 years after having to ditch them as my ISPWarning ..... I'm a peri-menopausal axe-wielding maniac0
