Can you get a username from an old account back?

[SwearyG]

In a fit of pique I took myself off all social media 3 months ago losing many photos in the process, idiot including here and it seems I can't just reactivate my old account. I used the same email to log in but can't have my old name back - does anyone know how I might do this?

Hi SwearyG!

Do you want to pop a mail over to [email protected]?

We're not able to reinstate previous usernames but we're happy to have a look and double check where we stand.

Thanks Lorna - email en route
