Two github accounts conflicting on the same computer

I have 2 github accounts, one for personal use and one for work.

I am working on a personal website and so I have logged into git from the terminal using my personal username and password. When I do a 'git config --list' I am shown the correct username and password for my personal account as I would expect.

However when I then try and push my code up to my personal account it gives this error...

remote: Permission to <personal_username>/<personal_repo>.git denied to <work_username>.

I have no idea where it is even picking up my work username or work credentials from as they are not listed in my git config.

Please help!

Thanks

If the URL is an HTTPS one, check your git config credential.helper: if manager, if would have cached, you need to reject its URL

git credential-manager reject
