You should use PrincipalInfo.CurrentPrincipal instead

Quan it doesnt retrieve the current user actually Membership.getUser worked at first but when i used it somewhere else it didn't , long story short Membership.GetUser is not working. 

and what i want is the email and the username and the id of the current User 

EpiserverProfile.Current seem to retrieve the username and the email but not the ID :/

You can get user name from there. Then if you are using Membership provider then Membership.GetUser to find that user. 

HttpContext.Current.User might give you the same information

Hi Kamal,

For user id:

PrincipalInfo.CurrentPrincipal.GetContactId()

For user name and email:

var customerContact = PrincipalInfo.CurrentPrincipal.GetCustomerContact(); 

Then you get customerContact, that contains name and email.
