Yes, it's quite likely. I made a new Paypal account with that email address, but I am not sure if I joined the community site before or after that. ... View more

I entered akopacsi181010 as a new username. I made a screenshot. I would be grateful if you could modify it to akopacsi, so I could go back to my old forum conversations. ... View more

Sure, on the left you can see me trying to claim my user name after logging in with my email address. On the right you can see a post I wrote with that account, if you reply to that post I get a notification to the email address with which I am unable to log in. ... View more

When I log in with that email address I can see an input box to enter a new username. It's like I was about to log in for the first time. However I had already used that account with my username (akopacsi) and even the site still sends me notifications when I get replies to my posts. I'm not giving my email address here, but you can see it on the server if you look for my username. If you drop me an email, I can send you this request in a reply to prove that it's my email address. I even use the same email address on Paypal for transactions. ... View more

Hello, I have a problem with a paypal-community account, I would be very grateful if you could fix it. I have an account on this community website (username: akopacsi) and it's linked to my email address <removed>. I used that account to post on community forums and I still get notifications to that email address when I get new badges and when somebody comments to my posts, etc. My problem is that when I try to log in with that email address the site wants me to set up a new username.   ( I made this temporary account just to contact the admins. I'm sorry for sending this request on a public forum. ) ... View more

I would like to contact an admin, because I have some problems with my account on this PayPal Community website. (I sent an error ticket to PayPal customer service, but they told me I have to contact Community admins.) ... View more

I have a problem with a paypal-community account, I think admins can fix it. Some months ago I closed a PayPal account that was used on this paypal-community.com site as well. I though that closing my PayPal account would delete my account on this community site too, but it did not happen and I still get email notifications from this site (about replies to my posts and new badges). I have already created a new Paypal account with the same email address (and same name, same bank account, same card data) and I just tried to log in to the community site, but it requests a new user name. I'm completely aware of the security considerations about username policy, but I'd be grateful if an admin could help me to get back my old user name. As I said my old username (akopacsi) is still linked to my email address (same username at gmail) and both my old and new PayPal accounts were used properly for a long time. I'm ready to send this request to an admin from the given email address to prove that I am still the owner of that address. (I made a temporary account to post this request and I'm sorry for sending this on a public forum, but I could not find any way to contact admins directly.) ... View more
