Please can everyone who is using a fake email address in there accounts here change it to a valid address. I dont care if the email address is never checked as long as it recieves e-mail and doe’s not cause bounce back’s. An example fake address would be yourname@forum.micromart.co.uk ?

I think mine is as well, but I cannot see how to find or check it at the moment.

Mine was real but the company recently stopped free accounts. When I came to trying to change it I never received the email when doing it and now I no longer have access to the old email account. If you are able to unlock it I will update it.

Based on what happened to me I don’t think you can update it unless it is a working email address?

Check my answer to Richard above. Iirc I edited my email addy and a link was sent to the new email for confirmation, so access to the old email is not necessary.

Doesn’t work for me, says it is sending the verification email. Last time I tried to cancel the pending change but the link was dead. This time it worked but redoing it the same thing happens and sends an email to the current address.
