change of primary email address is not working

I would like to change my primary email address.

I did this at https://dashboard.opendns.com/myaccount/email and clicked on the confirmation link that was sent to me by email. I was then taken to the account overview page, but the email address is still the old one.

I have exactly the same issue.

I have managed to update the network notification email address, but not the primary address (as you say).

Did you ever find a solution? The emails arrive, but the links don't do anything except load the Open DNS home tab.

I still have the same problem

Hello @bk10 

When you try to change your primary email, you will receive a mail with link to confirm the change. If You don't see in your inbox, also check in spam folder.

Hi @Blue_Bird 

Appreciate the input! Though in this case, the email does arrive just fine—so not quite the mystery. The actual issue is that the link takes you to the dashboard, and the primary email doesn’t update. Easy to overlook if you skim it, but it’s a bit more nuanced than a delivery problem.


Polished with a little help from AI—because diplomacy is an art, and sometimes even sarcasm needs editing.

Blue_Bird, are you an automated response? Thanks.

Hello @Joey Jo-Jo  and @Pixel Runner 

I found the similar problem in another thread.  Your email change some times won't effect immediately and took some time (1-3 days) to reflect the new changes.

I first tried on 21 July, and then multiple times on 25 July. In the dashboard, it says "Pending confirmation".
