    If I am locked out of my account, how do they expect me to sign in for support?


    I've had this account for over 20 years, same password. I mistyped one time and my account was blocked. The reset password option is not helpful and asks questions that have no relevance to my account today. I no longer have the old contact informtion. They need better options for accounts over 10 years old. My account has years of inforamtion and ties to accounts that correspond with me regularly. With todays innovation, there has got to be a more efficent method.

    I am locked out of my account.: I have just logged into my account on a new device. The moment I logged in, I was prompted with "Help us protect your account." I try to verify other accounts but it does not work. What do I mean by it does not work? Well it goes back into the "Help us protect your account"...
