Hello.... I followed your intructions but I cannot change password as I do not have a current password for Chess.com!! As a Facebook member, I do not need any Chess.com password.
I' will soon deactivate my Facebook account permanently.... How can I login directly to CHESS.com without login via Facebook??

OK, I think this will work for you.
Go to http://www.chess.com/home/account.html
Choose the link to Merge Facebook/Chess accounts
I'm not 100% positive it will transfer a premium membership but it should allow you to use your current account and still have the games you had started. If the premium membership doesn't follow you could always open a ticket, though I would do that part before closing your Facebook account.

I tried to merge accounts but:
Error #717: This account is already a premium membership. Not able to automatically merge. Please contact support for help. I'm still waiting for the support team to help.

Yeah, I did some searching after I posted that and saw in the past they had the problem. I just figured they had it fixed by now.
Your quickest bet is to open a ticket on the issue: http://support.chess.com/Tickets/Submit
Just be sure to choose the right options.

As I never played here on Chess.com(always played on Facebook), I just realized that I do have an email address here. I cannot access it as I forgot my password. When I ask the site to send me the password, they send it to my chess email account, which I can't access because I do not have the password.
This is so confusing and I don't seem to get assistance from CS. Help!!
Hello... I'm a premium member and I login to chess.com via Facebook. I want to login directly to chess.com(without login in via Facebook) as I deactivate my Facebook account(to reactivate it I need to wait 24 hours but I'll probably delete my FB account). I currently playing 4 tournaments and I don't have access to the games. :((
Any help? I just created a new chess.com account but I want to keep my paid membership(and renew it). Thanks!
