change of administrator

Question

We had our Trello Boards 'set up' by someone who has just left the company and wants to close down the trello boards as of May 1.  I assume he set up as an administrator or some other title and am thinking, that logically, cannot I say become the new administrator in order to save us having to copy all of the boards on to a new set up Trello account which will be laborious.  I think this person is doing it to cause us more work!  Thanks Vanessa 07776 241552

@Vanessa French you can read more about how to set up Trellinator here:

FYI though, if you're going to be using Trello in this sort of way you're better off with Business class or Enterprise which gives you more administrative controls as the account owner.

@Vanessa French hey, if you're a member of all the boards, then you can set up Trellinator under your user account and use this script to copy all the boards and add all members except the douchebag that's making you do all this extra work:
