Name change

[+Andrew & Barbara]

Hi, I requested to change name about 2 years ago to add my wifes name to mine and was told it was not possible and that I would have to re-enter 150 caches. It seemed too many to enter (many photos uploaded as well). As there is a unique identifier used for each cacher, as an ex-programmer, I cant believe that it is not possible to alter and at a cache meet tonight, heard of a couple of instances where names have been changed. Please give details of who I should contact to enable this. Surely as a Premium cacher this is not a lot to ask - and if it is not deemed allowable, the programmers must be responsible should divorce arise - we have now done nearly 600 and all in my name!

If you search the forum here, this has been discussed a number of times. I think if you make a good case, and ask politely, you might succeed.
