I didn't get chance to I simply made a account got the send address and sent and when I tried to log on to check the transaction the server was down. I have support tickets open and also tweeted @blockchain but no response

Hmm, well, they would have everything they need to locate it, if you gave them that address (probably available in bitfloor account history), your password, and the approximate time you created the wallet (probably a few minutes before the transaction timestamp.)  That's not safe for you (though what choice do you have at this point?), and not safe for their users, but perhaps you can give them enough evidence to convince them you're really the owner.  I'm thinking of a scenario where someone finds: "blockchain.info wallet password: abc123" on a post-it note but no wallet ID or alias.  This is already a disaster for the wallet owner, but it also seems like blockchain.info should try to not help thieves find the last bit of information they need to steal coins.  No accusations of you, just thinking from a wallet host's perspective and their responsibilities.  Best of luck.

Be aware:

Please could someone who is admin at blockchain.info look up the address: 14eN94uuxZz39k6tqWszaAiHwF5x5Cv5eE and tell me my identifier. I need it as soon as possible.

It is not possible to lookup wallets by addresses. Please check your browser history and local storage to see if the identifier is logged anywhere. Did you not set an alias or add an email when you signed up?
