Why can't you change your email address on the main account via the internet...Why do you have to ring up to change it?

Because they've used a very basic account system, the way the website is built accounts are identified by your email address and it's used as a username, to change it they would probably have to recreate your account with the new email address.

I have just hit this same problem. Why not have proper usernames instead of forcing a volatile email address into that role? I used an email provided by an ISP whom I am leaving. Silly and irritating.
