Only exchanges usually make use of email addresses while wallets that use passwords have nothing to do with the Blockchain as it is just an extra layer of security to help encrypt you wallet keys and phrases.

He's likely referring to Blockchain.com (formerly Blockchain.info), a very old web wallet provider. It's important to distinguish that Blockchain.com is separate from the underlying Bitcoin blockchain technology itself. They are not the same thing.

Math + Code = Blockchain 😁

You don't need an email address to be able to access the funds in your wallet address. All you need is a the seed phrase or the private keys . With that you already have complete access to a wallet. The block chain doesn't make use of email addresses plus the password it uses is the seed phrase and private keys.
You can simply download a wallet software like Electrum and Mycelium then make use of the seed phrase or private keys to access the funds.

You shouldn't need the email if you have the Mnemonic phrase, since you can always restore your funds in another wallet. Assuming you're talking about the phrase after they upgraded to HD wallets and not the old ones they used to have many years ago.

Hi,

I'm having a problem accessing my Blockchain wallet.

I have all security info, wallet ID, Mnemonic phrase, password.

The only problem is the email address. It is not what I thought and I have tried everything.

Support aren't being helpful.

Any ideas?
