Why can't I change my e-mail and profile details?
This is to ensure the security of your details as it is important for you to be able to receive Specials that are suitable for you to broadcast. You are not given the access to change your date of birth, gender, phone number and email. If you wish to do so, email your details to helpdesk@8share.com for further verification.
Can I change my username?
You cannot change your username.
What happens if I don't complete my profile details?
You will still receive Specials to broadcast, however you may not receive every Special that's supposedly meant for you.
