Hotmail

Has anyone ever been locked out their hotmail account?

For some reason my hotmail password would not work this morning (I used it last night and it was fine). I tried to reset it with the security question and answer but it doesn not give you the question so you have to guess and I have tried everything. Alternatively I can do 'send to my alternative email' it is sending but I have no idea what the alternative email is!!! I set the hotmail account up in year 2000! I am desperate to get in as I have flight details in there.

Any suggestions greatfully received!
Thanks

  • try going through hotmail.co.uk or hotmail.au or even hotmail.fr or hotmail.de (or any other than the usual one you use)
    I don't believe and I never did that two wrongs make a right
  • Could anyone have accessed your account and changed the password?

    tbh if you cant remember secret word or alternative email ( unless you set this up at the time reminder will go to the hotmail account you cant access , very handy 1 )..........you wont be able to into your account , been there I' m afraid
  • Silly point ............but have you checked caps lock?
  • Also about your flight phone up the company to check details, don't fret!
