Title: i cant access my hotmail account how to change my mail adress to stock sites?
Post by: lostintimeline on August 17, 2023, 09:07
a few days ago hotmail my primary mail adress  asked me to verify my id because I used another ip in a house I was staying in to log into my account...  for the security reasons that it was me i was using the mail  . they gave me to answer a question form .i signed  with them 17 years ago so i dont remember much ,,and did the mistake not to have a sec code... but it was 17 years ago  After I got my answer I was told that the information I provided was not convincing enough to verify my data and so they  blocked the account.and they told me to fill the form again I filled out the questionnaire again, hoping to geti it back BUT  if I don't get it back, how can I put a  new mail adress to the stock sites that  i was signed in in the first place like shutterstock ? Do I have to notify them through contact or can I do it from my account
after what happened i am not using HOTCRAP ever again 15 years and all gone in one min
 :( :( :P

   were you still in the new location when they asked you to start over? failure of 2 step verification usually just prevents you from logging in, doesnt delete your account. if so, your acct would likely still work from your home and you could update your security questions there.  any progress?

the agencies most likely do not check your username to see if the email is valid every time you sign in, but rather just treat it as a string of charcters.  the email becomes significant for payment, but agencies need to have a way for people to change that email as emails do change.  so you can probably just log in as normal and change the assoc'd email used for payment.

One more question
I logged to the stock sites to change my PayPal address, but when I tried to do that in pond 5 ,I got a massage that they need to send me a mail  to answer it back for sec reasons ,that it’s me I am doing the change
Thing is I no longer have access to my hotmail account
What should I do ?! I don’t wanna lose any money from sales from them

Recover your Hotmail account. I mean, contact Hotmail for account recovery.

Recover your Hotmail account.

Or just write to each site and explain. There will be ways to verify ownership of the account and to attach a new email address.

Hi guys thanks for the replies
I finally recovered my hotmail and I put a new password
Funny thing is that hotmail gave me this form  to fill with  some qs  like what year I made the account and where .in which country .or my sec code, what’s your fav color for eg ..of course I didn’t remember much cause  I created it almost twenty years ago
Both times they rejected my appeal .but something changed and they just told me to create a new password duhhh .so I got hotmail back
