Sep 28, 2016 at 4:03 comment added user642796 So it hasn't failed, it just hasn't been completed. I'm pretty certain that the actual merging of accounts is not an automated process, but is done manually. SE staff can be very busy, and it may take time to process requests. (Also, requests sent during the weekends are very unlikely to get a rapid response.) If it's been less than one week since the first submission I would suggest that there's nothing to be concerned with. After this I would recommend against submitting multiple merge requests, but instead a custom "other" contact, or email [email protected] directly.
Sep 28, 2016 at 3:20 comment added Alex Youcis @arjafi No. Sorry! They have done the standard procedure of sending me two copies of the email, I have followed the instructions (sequentially clicking a link acknowledging ownership of the respective accounts) but have yet to actually have the accounts merged. Is that clear enough?
Sep 27, 2016 at 10:28 comment added user642796 Can you expand on what you mean by "it has failed every time"? E.g., has SE explicitly denied your request to merge these accounts?
