Need to change login name but message is login name already exists

Hello MYOB,

I need to change login/email as no longer using this email as has been de-activitated by IT. I am still the Administrator for company that has been sold but will still need to do BAS, EOFY, etc. When I went to change login/email it came up with " Login name exists (l116_3000). Can you please advise and I will check for answers on Community everyday. I need this done ASAP. 

Thank you.
