Solved

Profile

So I have a profile with IMDB credits however I never made it and the director giving me those credits didn't attach them to my normal account. Do I need a pro account to receive credits? Or can I just transfer them to my normal account.

Hi bradleygross2-

You do not need an IMDbPro account to add or receive credits. But if you have duplicated name pages with your credits on both pages, you can submit a name merge through the online Update form. 

For further detailed information and instructions, I encourage you to review our following Help Guide. You can look under 'You have two name pages for the same person, how can I merge them?.'

Let us know if you have further questions!

Cheers!

I went through all of my emails and none of them are linked to the account with the credits. I know I did not make that account. Is there anyway to get those credits to my account?

@bradleygross2- If you already have your page but there is another page with your credits, you can submit a name merge to combine both pages to have all your credits together.

@bradleygross2​ In addition to Maya’s helpful advice above (thanks) please check that you understand the difference between a user account profile page and an IMDb name page as explained on: https://help.imdb.com/article/imdb/general-information/what-s-the-difference-between-an-imdb-page-and-user-profile/GHQEDYZ5DJ5Y8G5S 

Hope this helps.
