Hello, I recently updated my cell phone number linked to my Hotmail email account. I've been using this account for over 20 years, but now I can't access it because of the number change. I've tried filling out the account verification form, but I'm struggling to remember recent emails I've sent or specific recipients. Are there alternative ways I can verify my identity without this information? I have other emails stored in the account that are not recent, as well as pictures that I can remember. Thank you, A.E. at [redacted]

My wife, Naomi, has two accounts with you: [redacted] and [redacted] Every time we go on holiday, Hotmail asks her to verify the email with a code, sent to the other address. Both emails are stuck in a loop asking for verification, causing us to be locked out. We urgently need access to important flight documents. Please, can you resolve this matter promptly?

I have been trying to recover my HOTMAIL email account and have filled out the question forms, but still can't regain access. It has been about 6 days of trying, and I'm not getting any positive responses. I haven't used this email in a while, and I changed my phone number a long time ago. Not being able to update the phone number on the account is making it less likely for me to recover it.

Hello, I'm Benjamin Peecock. I had registered my email address [redacted] with you some time back. Recently, due to a separation from my wife, she has taken control of the account by changing the password and all recovery options to her details.

I have important personal messages in that account and would appreciate your help in regaining control of it. Thank you for your assistance. Ben Peecock. Phone: +[redacted]77, Mobile: +[redacted]98.

Hello, I am encountering issues logging into my Hotmail account [redacted] Approximately three weeks ago, I received an email from MSN alerting me that someone was attempting to access my account. Following this, I successfully changed my password. However, since then, I have been unable to log back into Outlook.com using this email address.
My other Hotmail account, [redacted], which is linked to a Microsoft account, is working without any problems. I have also received multiple emails from Microsoft Outlook stating:
"It looks like we don't have permission to get email for [redacted] Account Status: The last successful sync was on 14/11/[redacted] 06:46:28 UTC."
I have tried various methods to resolve the syncing issue through Outlook - Sitting-Mail-sync, but it has not been successful. Could you please provide an update on the status of my [redacted] account and advise on how I can regain access to it? Thank you and best regards.

I am currently located in Southeast Asia on vacation and experiencing difficulty accessing my Hotmail account. I have tried entering the code provided to my alternate email address twice, but I am repeatedly asked to provide detailed information such as email addresses and specific subject lines of recent emails. As a frequent user of the address book and someone who sends numerous work-related emails from my alternate address on a daily basis, recalling such specific details is challenging. It seems unreasonable to expect this level of information for access. I believe there should be a more straightforward method in place to allow users to access their own inboxes. Any assistance in resolving this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Hello, my name is Casey Davey. I recently upgraded my phone and got a new number. Unfortunately, I forgot to save my passwords for some important accounts, including my email ([redacted]). I've tried all my usual passwords but can't seem to remember the right one. The phone number linked to the account ([redacted]) is also no longer in use, so I can't receive verification through that.

I have attempted to regain access by submitting the account verification form numerous times, but the system keeps indicating that I lack sufficient information.

Hello Hotmail Support,
I've been diligently completing multiple recovery forms in an effort to regain access to my old but still active Hotmail account under the address [redacted] Just recently, I recalled the correct password for the account. However, due to multiple unsuccessful login attempts, my account has been locked for security purposes.

I have been using an app called AnyList, and they mentioned that they sent me multiple messages to my Hotmail account at [redacted] Unfortunately, I did not receive any of the emails because I recently changed my phone and forgot my password.

Hello. I have been using a hotmail.com email address for years.
I would like to change my email address from 'michalpieprzyk@' to 'michal.pieprzyk@' while keeping all emails in my inbox, outbox, etc. I understand that recipients of my old email address will not be able to reach me.
Thank you for any suggestions on how to proceed with this change or if there are any alternative solutions available.
