I am unable to login to my account with my email ID.

Hello,

I tried to log into my account and it does not recognize my email ID and asks me to create a new account.

 

Has my account been deleted? How do I find out?

 

All my files are on there, so I am very worried.


Please help.

    Thanks for this riptide344!

     

    I was able to locate the ticket number, and an agent will be with you as soon as possible. 

     

    Thanks for that!

    BTW, this was a different (paid) account, not the one I am using to ask the question to the community.
