Giday

As per the title, I need help changing my email on this account.

My current email is my work email & I'm trying to change it to my private email address.

I've tried "Edit Profile" & changed the email ... then Saved ... but it doesn't change.

Does it need to be verified ??

And the saga continues ...

The link in the email comes up with the message below ...


Forum Error

There has been a serious error loading the forum. No further information is available.

Please contact the administrator if this message persists.

Note: If you are the administrator, and need help with this problem, please visit this url: Turn off CustomErrors in your web.config.

Try Again


Pressing the Try Again link just takes me to the forum ... nothing changed.

Trying the link in the verification email again takes me to the correct place to enter the verification code, but it fails.

The problem was that you'd already registered a different account using your other email address. I've now deleted your old account as there was no forum posts made using it and updated the email address on your current account ;)

Thanks for your help.
