Under your arkitekt878 account, which is now going to outlook.com email address, you have 20 subscription, and none are set to email you.

Under your btinternet.com email address, not a WordPress.com account, you have 21 subscriptions, and all are set to email you.

So, it looks like you subscribed to these current emails as an email address only with your btinternet.com address.

The next time you receive a subscription email at btinternet.com, hit the Manage Subscriptions (or similar) link at the bottom of the email.

As for your arkitekt878 subscriptions, visit http://wordpress.com/#!/read/edit/

The blog URL is http://designhouse9.wordpress.com/

So I guess it's not working.

Please let us know if the next subscription email arrives at the right address.

I did get the email to my new email address notifying me that I was required to click a link to change it

"You recently requested to have the email address on your account changed. If this is correct, please click on the following link to change it:"

I clicked the link and was then directed to Account Settings which tells me my new email address has been accepted. As well as that all the notifications that you are replying to this post are going to the new email address, so it would seem to me that it has been accepted.

Would you please confirm that the address you set at Users -> Personal Settings in correct, and that it is not still waiting for confirmation.

Also, you may need to wait for the next subscription email to go out before you notice any change.

What is the URL of the blog in question?

Got the message at the top of the page saying,

"Your email address has not been etc"

I checked my mail and clicked the link to set the new email address which takes me to Account Settings which tells me I've successfully updated my email address to the new one.

To check if the change has been reflected in Blogs I Follow I'm clicking the link called Manage Subscriptions at the bottom of an email post from one of the blogs I am following.

Nothing has changed. It still shows my old email address as the one where notifications will be sent to

Did it a couple of days ago but it doesn't seem to have changed. This is the message I see when I select Blogs I Follow

This is the management page for following blogs. You will receive an email at [email redacted] whenever a new post is made on these sites. Unfollow a blog to stop receiving emails from that blog.

The xxx's have been substituted to hide the true email address.

However, when I go to Users, Personal Setting I can see my new email address under Account Settings, Email which is [email redacted]

Hope this makes sense.
