Is there a way to umerge my account?

I don't want to paste the URL in here, though, without checking with you first.

http://upcoming.yahoo.com/user/44766/ I don't mind pasting it.

Unfortunately, I haven't gotten a response from the folks over there either via the contact form. Maybe they are just really busy.

I talked to Yahoo account services. They said it wasn't their problem. So, that leaves me at a total loss for action. Maybe they'll reply by SXSW, maybe not. In the meantime, I just created a new yahoo account, a new upcoming ID, and set the BIO to say "I'm sorry, my main account is totally screwed right now."

Another 2 emails, no reply. Still waiting on anything, even a "we won't do anything, sorry" would be nice.

Got a reply, it has now been fixed:

"You can now reclaim Jakobo with your new Yahoo! ID.

Let me know if you get stuck.

-Vince"

Figured I should update everyone and say it's been resolved.

Glad it worked!

Did you delete your Yahoo! account for a reason? Or did someone delete it for you?

I had deleted it because the ID had a bunch of information that was impossible to get rid of from Yahoo services 10+ years ago (such as a phone # from back in the Yahoo Voicemail days). I didn't realize all the problems it was going to cause.

Great feedback, thanks for letting me know. We'll keep an eye out for this sorta thing going forward.
