What's my Yahoo account password?

Dear Dave, I wrote to Yahoo previously asking about my mail I believe had been hacked because my password is suddenly rejected. I am so disappointed no help has been given. What can I do to ask for a new password and retrieve my mail when I can't remember the zip code I entered previously?

It is such a disgrace if Yahoo! does not provide alternatives to handle such cases.
In my country, unlike the US, zip code aint popular at all. We don't use such data often. I was about to register full service by credit card, for Yahoo! with no ads, but now I am so disturbed and highly disappointed!

Pleeeeeeeeeeease HELP?

Dave's Answer:

These are always interesting requests for help to receive, actually. On the one hand, it's true that prompting for a zipcode as a key to retrieve a password is very ethnocentric since most other countries in the world have either something only vaguely similar (postal codes, but they can contain letters and numbers) or have nothing that serves a similar purpose.

On the other hand, Yahoo! lets you chose from about 30 different countries, including China, Japan, Brazil, Germany, Greece, Thailand and Vietnam. Further, you can actually set any of about a dozen different reminder questions if you don't have a zip code, as shown here:

If you have an account, it's your responsibility to set it up so that you can recover and restore any settings or similar.

But there's a bigger issue here. The issue is how does Yahoo! know that you have legitimate claim to this account?

If you were someone who was trying to break into an account, a "hacker" as you suggest, then you wouldn't know the zipcode for the password reminder and you wouldn't know the password.

In fact, I don't like to help people recover their passwords when they don't know the answers to their recovery questions, the situation you describe here, because I also have no way of differentiating between someone in a frustrating and unfortunate situation and someone who is trying to game the system, trying to con me (or Yahoo!) into releasing access to a personal account.

So the final answer I'll offer is that if you really want to have a Yahoo Mail account, then make sure that you promptly modify your account settings so that you have a reminder question that you're 100% sure you'll remember.

Caesar Wong said, on September 23, 2011 11:53 PM:

Wow. What an epic comments section. Can't believe people are still posting here so many years after the original post. It really says something about the critical flaw with Yahoo's ID system.

Here's my sob story with my Yahoo ID: a long time ago, I signed up for a Geocities account using "zzyss" (the same nickname I've been using everywhere for years). I don't remember clearly, but I don't think it was mandatory to provide any recovery information back then, or if it was, it was different to the current "birthday, country, zipcode" combination that's used now.

Then Yahoo acquired Geocities, and I don't know how or why, but they merged their namespaces. Ever since then, I've lost access to zzyss-AT-yahoo-DOTCOM because their password recovery facility is asking for info that I never provided. To the best of my knowledge, old IDs are never expired, quarantined or recycled. Yahoo support has pretty much said "sucked in" every few years when I could be bothered sending in an enquiry about it.

Considering how many services Yahoo IDs are linked to now (Flickr, Mail, etc.) woe be to you if you haven't gone in and provided the recovery details while you still have access to your account.

what is my password yahoo id pls send my password in my mobile

Rebecca said, on September 26, 2011 10:22 AM:

Hi Dave, I really hope you can help me with this issue. The other day someone hacked my yahoo account. I have been able to log in and changed my password. Whoever hacked my account added an alternate e-mail that is very similiar to my e-mail. They proceeded to send a "money scam" to everyone in my account before deleting my account. Now, I hear from friends via text or phone call, that when they reply-to an e-mail from my originial e-mail address, the "alternate" e-mail shows up in the reply to box. I have searched my options in my yahoo classi mail, but can't find any place where I can fix that. I have contacted yahoo customer service, but am worried that I won't even be able to get a message back from them. I have put my gmail address here, hoping that I will be able to hear back from you!

Wizwych said, on October 3, 2011 3:21 PM:

My yahoo accoun was Hacked 2 years ago now im feeling the pinch of it cos most of my older game passwords and so on are being sent to that email address when i request them. I tried to get the Yahoo Account Back but. The security questions i had previously requested had changed, along with my password. When I tried to get Yahoo to help I was confronted by the Yahbot Telling me that i should do things that i had done trillion times before.. By the way I still never got my Account back and too be honest i dont think Yahoo even care..

Balazs said, on October 6, 2011 11:21 AM:

Hello Dave,
My girlfriend one day to another, are unable to access yahoo mail. Password is not changed for some time. Securyti answer questions of can not remember, and no secondary e-mail address. Some chance to recover your password?

Al said, on October 7, 2011 12:50 AM:

I cannot log into Yahoo. I changed passwords and went through the process 5 separate times but when I return to sign in I get: "Invalid ID or password.Please try again using your full Yahoo! ID, and type the text you see in the picture"
However, let me guarantee that I entered the correct information. No matter what I enter the same information I received. I even re-registered a new account and went through the same process and I got back the same answer. It is frustrating because it is like talking to the wall. Yahoo does not solve the problem nor inform customers what is happening. I suppose this means they do not want new accounts and are attempting by attrition for existing ones to give up and go elsewhere.

YahooSucks said, on October 22, 2011 4:20 PM:

Yahoo is a worthless piece of sh**!

It will not even provide re-set passwords for it's long-term, loyal customers!

Sources say that Google is considering buying the manure heap known as Yahoo.

If it does -- then hopefully, perhaps Google will be able to reset passwords and forward them the the related email address (so that people can start using their Yahoo accounts again -- if they dare).

I even waited for a couple of weeks if I have blocked the account with my trials...

My fiance has been missing for almost a week. The last he was seen was at his job on Sunday. They won't tell us anything else. We've contacted our local police precinct but so far they have not been much help. We have called hospitals and prisons to no avail. I have managed to get into an email address that is not used often and found activity on the 30th between a good friend of his but no activity since. We were trying to access his main account to see if there's been any activity there that may help us. His mother and I are going back to his job and to the police tomorrow to try and get more answers and more help. We are getting desperate. Is there any way you can contact me and assist in getting into his e-mail? It is a yahoo account. I know that the email he uses is linked to his phone as well as the secondary email that I was able to access, but again there hasn't been much activity. We are desperate and afraid! Please help!
