I enjoyed using Twitter for 9 years with my firstnamelastname account. Then I lost access to the email address and there is no support to help me regain access. I'd even pay them something to verify my identity and account.

Oh well i havent used Twitter in years and wont unless I gain access back to my account.

I understand your frustration. I offered to provide my ID to Twitter for verification if it would help. I never heard anything from them in regards to that.

For me, somebody actually tried to extort me with my firstnamelastname account on Twitter. To this day they have it registered still with no tweets.
