Maybe to stop people getting it emailed to an addy that's not yours? :rolleyes:

I understand what your saying m8 but it does seem strange to send a password to an email account that you cannot get too lmao What is the point in sending it if you could retreave it then there would no need for it to be sent and need to ask for it in the first place.

Ring NTL then :rolleyes: Obviously, you'd need account details though.

Sorry to sound patronising, it's just basic common sense from where I'm sitting (my desk!)...

Yeah, they'll probably want your account name and password ;)

Eh? I doubt it... probably some address details, maybe the account number, something on the bill?

How do I know? I'm not daft enough to forget a password... now some total c0c|< deciding to reset it... now that's another matter :rolleyes:

PErhaps if he had setup forwarding to another account I.E. Gmail, it could have mailed the password to his NTL account & it would then have been sent to his other account.
Now if he forgot the password to that one too... :D

yeh its ok phoning if you want to spend nearly an hour on the phone i just find it strange that if you click on the link for pass word to be sent it will send to the email you cannot get at and no other option to send to any other one but np its most probly expired now

Re: email password
 
Remember that the password is normally 'remembered' by the e-mail client (e.g. Outlook), so you can still receive e-mail, but YOU might have forgotten it, and need it to (e.g.) set up further e-mail addresses, or set up forwarding, so it's not as daft as it sounds.

A sure way is to write a letter in and ask them to send the email address and password in a hard copy letter to the registered user at their registered address.
