Re: email password

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

Re: email password

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.

Re: email password

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

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

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

Re: email password

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...

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.

Re: email password

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.
