Changing email address? - Guild Wars Forums

Ok, so im no longer sure about the integrity of the email address i have linked to my GW account, and i know there used to be an option to change it but now i dont appear to be able to do it. It was through the account edit area when you entered GW but now it just kicks me off to PlayNC where there is no option to change it. Have they removed the ability to change email address?

you can change your forwarding email address, but if your acct login *is* the email address you cannot change it anymore. Recommend you *do* change your password though and make sure you have your product keys handy!

I believe that, after you log into PlayNC, you can change your e-mail address. You may need to setup a PlayNC account and start the process over again. You can't change the account name, but you can change the e-mail address that's used for correspondence with ANet. (In other words, the Account Name is not an "e-mail address", it's just an account name that looks like an e-mail address.)
