The same thing happened to me last week. The last time I was able to log on was 3-8-06. I know I didn't change my password and I can't get any response from Yahoo other than the canned responses. At this point, I don't know whats going on. Maybe someone hacked into my account or maybe this is strictly a Yahoo screwup. I've had my account for many years, and I'm fed up with being ignored by yahoo. As soon as I get back in, I'm downloading a copy of my address book and closing my account. You can't depend on yahoo for anything.

The same exact thing happened to me today. I was in my Yahoo account late last night, and when I tried to get in this morning, it is not accepting my password. I never changed it, so now I'm worried that someone else did - has anyone encountered this problem and had it solved by Yahoo?

Same thing happened to my wife last night. Until then, everything ok; this morning, invalid ID/password. We emailed customer service but got the typical canned runaround. She tried to reset her password and in the process got a message saying her account had been deactivated!!!!! All she does is email friends and family. NOTHING ELSE!!! She doesn't download music; she doesn't sell stuff; she doesn't buy stuff!!!! Still they deactivated her with no warning . . . apparently for a violation of their Terms of Service. This HAS TO BE A TECHNICAL MISTAKE but I can't get anyone at Yahoo to respond!!!!

Same thing happened to me and the only thing I can say is to contact the BBB. Unfortunatly I did that and no agreement was reached with Yahoo and BBB. I think that if we all contact the BBB they will end up getting the message. Let me know what happens. [url]http://www.bbbsilicon.org/commonreport.html?bid=202555[/url]

Hello. This exactly same thing happened to me. I've had this account for many years, and all of a sudden, wednesday morning my ID and/or password stopped working. That's unbelieveble!! And I can't recover the password since I never bodered to update my personal information on the account (it was a friend 7 or 8 years ago who opened the account for me when I still didn't have it at home, and he randomly put my birthday I guess - only thing I know is my correct birthday doesn't work and I contact this friend).

So I've been back and forth with the account costumer service and they say they're sorry they can't help bla bla bla bla! I even gave then my till-tuesday-working ID and password, I described them the private content of my emails, and nothing.

I have there very important contacts for my current and ongoing job search, which I don't have anywere else.

I hope it all works out for you with this problem, and if you have some information that might help me, please contact me to [email]riquardofonseca@hotmail.com[/email]. Oh, and I already filed a complain to that site someone mentioned in another thread, I think.

Cheers,

Ricardo

For no reason, yahoo suddenly locked my account two days ago. I am very very frustrated. I have been using this account for last years... Imagine how many contacts I have. I am sole moderator & owner of two Yahoo groups. Those will be retarded pretty soon. I don't remember what I had put sd Date of Brith when I opened this account. Disgusting customer service reps are refusing to verify my yahoo account in any other way. I have been receiving same freaking email reply from those stupid people. Funny thing is they have kept no way to update date of birth in yahoo account.

I have filed a BBB complain on it. Anyone received any resolution?

Glad to see I'm not the only one with this problem.Has anyone tried to assign a new password?I did and it told me that my account was deactivated but never gave me a reason.

Has anyone had any luck getting their account open long enough to extract the adress book and email that needed to be saved?I intend to do this so I can then deactivate the account myself.Yahoo sucks.

I've had my account for at least 8 years... and now I can't get in either. I have much important data in my folders that need to be accessed.
