I need to change the password on one of my email addresses but the link does not arrive. Can someone at Talk Talk change this for me? Maurice

Was not going to say this but this has been handled so badly I changed my mind.

 
Your intervention is nor very helpful when customer support is required..
 
"Hopefully tomorrow"?? and what is the reason for your involvement/interference Gliwmaeden2, which may also be delaying resolution?
 
I have been with Tiscali then Talk Talk for a very long time and I am now paying for a service that I was not receiving.
 
I am rather unwell at this time, surely I deserved better Customer Care than I received..
 
There should have been a better way to get this sorted.

For the Record Adi

Even though I made it clear at the start of advising of my problem with jandm-  etc i.e.- NO access - when I regained access there were 24 Talk Talk messages, all advising the link I had requested !!
I have not been served well.

Hi Maurice, which of the email addresses did you want the password resetting for? I only had 1 address in your profile when I sent off the request? Am I to take it that's not the address you need the password reset updating for? If not which one of the 3 now in private notes do you want the details updating for?

Maurice, it's not Ady that has to send the reset code to your mobile it's you.

 

The Reset password now button in the help article  Changing your email password is what you need. Select the link and that will take you to the help article and a scroll down and you'll see the blue button - selecting the button will take you on the password recovery journey. 


Enter the email address you're trying to get access to and then select the mobile number to send your mobile a 6-digit code to authorise a password reset.

Gondola, I have three email addresses (2 active) all starting slightly differently - I will leave another Private Note

Andy, re Gondola's message, can you try that?

Ady said he used the mobile number given in your Community profile so why not get a reset code sent to that mobile if you don't recognise the email address from the hint given?

I have tried repeatedly but no link received. This must be something simple, need to know for sure which email address it is being sent to.

It looks like the correct settings are in place in the Password Reset Tool.  Have you tried resetting your password.

Perhaps but I just rechecked and the record is there, it is the email address that you are both contacting me on. I'm not too well at this time so not thinking as clearly as I should maybe.

Did you see the instructions I gave you in an earlier post yesterday, @Mo7777777 ?

 

You maybe missed SAVE CHANGES?

The best way is to add it to your community profile in the private notes section. Click on your avatar, go to my settings then personal information scroll to the bottom of that page and you'll see Private Notes add all the information that needs to be shared with only TalkTalk staff in there.

Oh Ady, I have given the alternative email address several times. Remind me how to do it again.

Hi Maurice, I've raised the request for the Password Reset Tool to be updated. You haven't provided an alternate mail address so I've used the mobile number in your profile.  This will complete within 24 hours and you can check to see if its done at Password Reset Tool

@Mo7777777, you are delaying the progress of the thread.

 

Better to wait, despite the frustration. 

 

It will be quicker in the end. Staff won't be on here at this stage of the afternoon  - it's not fulltime cover. Hopefully tomorrow.
