Dear Yahoo Team,
I recently got a new phone and I am currently unable to access my email account as I cannot verify my identity through any of the available options since I have a new phone number and a new device. My email address is [redacted] The password should still be yannimaus09, but I am not entirely certain as I used Face ID on my previous phone, which I no longer have access to. I have folders with vacation, legal matters, my dog, and other important documents like payslips that I need access to. I kindly request your assistance in regaining access to my email account.
Sincerely,
Nadine Weinand

Subject: Email Access Issue
Dear Customer Service,
I am encountering a frustrating issue with my Yahoo email account on my Mac Desktop. Upon attempting to access my emails, I receive a message stating, "We are unable to process your request at this time. Please try again in one hour." I wait for the countdown, and after an hour, I can finally access my emails.
I sought assistance from Rogers, my server in Toronto, via their chat support. Although a representative tried to help, the guidance provided was too complex for me to follow. As someone with limited computer expertise, I would greatly appreciate a simplified explanation to resolve this recurring problem.
If you require specific details, please let me know so I can promptly provide the necessary information. My Yahoo password is rainyday18, and the email access password is Email[redacted]4$.
I am grateful for any assistance you can offer.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
James Sleigh

I am having trouble accessing my wife's two Yahoo accounts. Both have shown unusual activity but have not been locked out yet.

The email addresses in question are [redacted] and [redacted] Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated.

I am attempting to recover access to a social media account with an inactive Yahoo email. I was advised to reach out to customer support but can't afford international calls at the moment.
"Recovery emails may not be sent to recycled email addresses, potentially causing delivery failures. To prevent this, contact customer support for the platform you're recovering access to and request to be unsuppressed."

I have been attempting to regain access to my email account ([redacted]) for a considerable period without success. Despite trying various online recovery methods, I have been unable to resolve the issue. The account was reportedly deactivated due to inactivity, which worries me as important personal and financial information is connected to it. I faced challenges using the account due to a prolonged illness, but I have since recovered. The mobile number linked to the account is +[redacted] (0)[redacted]. Re-gaining access to my email is crucial for urgent matters.

Hello, after changing my mobile phone, I am unable to access my Yahoo email account. I am having trouble changing my password as Yahoo no longer recognizes my name and surname, which is blocking my access to emails. I have been trying to find solutions for a week but have had no luck, and I can't reach them by email or phone. If you have any suggestions, I would appreciate it. The only option Yahoo offers is to pay €5.35 per month for assistance.

I can't access my account due to not remembering the phone number I used for verification when I was younger. The system won't let me in without the verification code sent to that number. I rely on this account for important contacts, so creating a new account isn't ideal. How can I regain access or update my verification number? Appreciate any help.

Dear Sir or Madam,
I created my Yahoo account a while ago using my old phone number, which is no longer available to me due to a contract change. Today, when I tried to log in after a long period of time, the two-factor security message sent an SMS to my no longer available phone number, so I am unable to access the account. I still have the password. Is there anything that can be done as I am expecting an important email in the next few days?
Best regards,
Lina-Marie B.

Good evening,
I am contacting you because I am having trouble logging into my account.
I lost my phone last Friday, and I was always logged into yahoo on there. When I try to log in using my PC, it only gives me the option to approve it via my phone, either by SMS or email. Unfortunately, no other option is being displayed.
Can you help me with my issue?
I urgently need to access my account to pay some bills.
Thank you in advance.
Kind regards

Hello, my Yahoo account seems to have been compromised. Last month, I lost or my phone was stolen, and I forgot to update my email account with a new recovery number. When I tried to log in on a trusted device, it said it couldn't verify it was me and to use a recovery option. However, I can't use the mobile number and the backup email I used was another Yahoo account that got deactivated due to inactivity. I find it frustrating because the email was set up for this exact scenario, and Yahoo is not helping me, especially since I live in the UK and not the US.

Hello, I accidentally deleted the email address [redacted] It belonged to my husband, but I have forgotten the password. The phone number linked to it is no longer in use.

Additionally, I no longer remember the passwords for the two recovery email addresses: [redacted] and [redacted] His brother set it up for him, and most of his important accounts are linked to this email address. He can be reached at phone number [redacted][redacted]. Can you help us regain access to the mentioned email address?

Yahoo has recently made changes to how email dates are displayed. Some users, like myself, prefer the previous format showing month, day, and year. The current method only showing days of the week can be confusing, especially with a large volume of emails. It's important for me to easily see when emails were received. Can someone provide steps to revert back to the original date display format? Your assistance is greatly appreciated.
