Hey Laura Bloom, sorry to hear about this.

 

If you've ensured that you're using the correct email address for this, would it be OK if we reach out via email to have a further look internally? 

 

Let us know here and we'll use the email address that's associated with your Community profile. 

 

Thanks!

    Hi,

     

    I'm having the same issue. Unable to change my email address on my account, the email message with the verification never arrives on my new inbox.

      Hey fdiamond, sorry to hear about this.

       

      Have you taken a look at your email's spam/junk folder as well to see if the verification email somehow ended up there?

        Yes, but it is not there. I even deactivated my spam filter and it still hasn't arrived.
