Solved

IMDbPro Account name

When I signed up before I became Pro, I used my business name. I guess on a personal account?

Someone gave me a credit for being on his show a while back, But I just found it because I was searching my name, and he used my facebook personal name  without asking me, which has my maiden name and my current name. I don't go by my maiden name anymore. 

How do I fix this not by merging because I don't want the other name? But not lose the credit?

I have a streaming network for moms. I'm not a actress or crew. 

Customer Support has been useless, just sending me links that don't answer my question. I only figured out that I need to have a personal account with a credit to be associated with a company page? I'm not even sure? I have so many contacts I need to add!

Thanks to anyone who can help me, I appreciate it!

Hi BusyMomMedia-

In this case, if that other page has a name you don't go by anymore, you can first submit a name correction through the 'Edit page' button that's at the bottom of this page. You will then look for the section call 'Name updates' and then go to 'Name correction' and follow the instructions to submit. 

Afterwards, then you can go ahead and submit a name merge. For more detail information on how to merge IMDb name pages, you can also check this Help Guide and scroll down to the third point: "You have two name pages for the same person, how can I merge them?" where you will find the instructions below.

Once these updates are submitted, our editors will review them.

Let us know if you have further questions!

Cheers!

Do I need to wait untll the name correction is updated before I merge the page? 

My username is Busymommedia, I thought it was a company page. 

Do I merge my personal name with my username/business name?

At what point and how do I get a Company page? (I have a new pro account).

@BusyMomMedia​ So, we don't allow company names on name pages. In this case, I suggest that the name on your page either be your name or if you use a stage name but no company names.

You can submit the name correction and then proceed with the name merge. 

You can take a look at the following Help Guide on how you can add a new company page on IMDbPro and how you can link them to titles and name pages.

Hope this helps!
