Change Email Address on Facebook Guide: Changing your email address on Facebook can be done as fast as possible.

Discovering that an unknown person has accessed your email account and personalized it is a painful experience.

It is usually difficult to claim back ownership of the account, so the best thing to do is to open another one and move your transactions to the new one.

Often, when people’s email accounts get invaded, the main focus is to gain access to their Facebook accounts. So, after opening a new email account, another very important thing to do is to change your email address on Facebook.

Every aspect of your experience on Facebook social media can be customized, with the email address you linked to the account included.

Your email account plays a very important role in your Facebook account because you must provide your email address before you can log into your account.

Apart from that, your email makes it easy for other Facebook users to locate you if you allow that option in your privacy settings.

If you want to swap the old email that was compromised with a new one, we will look in two ways. Follow the steps below:

Troubleshooting Common Facebook Email Issues

• Access your email notification settings to confirm that your email notifications aren’t deactivated.
• Ensure that you browse your spam/junk folder in your email inbox. Confirm that your inbox isn’t filled up and that you can receive incoming emails. 
• If you find your Facebook email in the spam folder, be sure to include the @facebookmail.com email domain in your email account’s safe senders list.
• If you are yet to receive Facebook emails after all these steps, get in touch with your ISP (Internet service provider) to verify that they aren’t limiting email traffic originating from Facebook.

And that is all there is to it!
