Can you tell me when was the username created?

Customer

Probably 5 days ago. I have tried changing it to see if that made a difference.

Customer

And I’ve been verified by FB. I thought that might help and it didn’t

I have just done a change of user name in one of our old test pages

After a user name change it is a 24 hour wait until it is searchable.

I would suggest we do another test tomorrow.

Customer

Is there a way to talk with you tomorrow. I’ve had 2 other tech support people from another website try to help me today and they couldn’t.

You can save this page.

Or go to your email as a link to go back to this page will be sen to your mail.

Also Write my number down ***-***-**** .

Call me exactly the same time now tomorrow.

Customer

I don’t want to have to start over with a new tech person. And I’ve already spent a lot of money today for no results on the other two people.

Customer

Right now my page is unsearchable too after the change.
