How Do I Open My locked Yahoo Mail Account?

There might be times when you have to access your Yahoo Mail, but due to certain issues, you find it temporarily blocked. Though the blocking has been done to safeguard your account from some trouble that can cause damage to your confidential information but the blocking can cost you heavily, especially when you have to share details with your clients. Blocking can be annoying as the account is blocked for a certain period of time by Yahoo and will be automatically unblocked. But in case you want to unblock it all by yourself then here is an easy way to do it.

Some Common Reasons For Blocking your Yahoo account

• Trying the wrong password multiple times.
• Sending multiple emails to the recipient.
• Hacking attempts on your Account.
• Spam mark by recipients on receiving an invaluable message.
• Unusual login activity on your account.
• Unauthorized access to third-party apps and software.

How To Unlock Temporary Locked Yahoo Mail Account?

• Go to https://help.yahoo.com/kb/SLN2051.html page.
• Here click on the “Sign-in Issue” message.
• Next click on Sign-in Helper.
• Enter the Register Yahoo Mail Address, Phone Number or enter Recovery Email ID.
• To request an ‘Account Key’ code you have to enter your phone number or email address. 
• And the code will be sent to you via text message and in case if your phone does not support your text message then select an email to get the account key code.
• Once you have entered the code you have to change the password to complete the entire process and unblock the account. The password you entered should be strong and unique. You can check the strength of the password through a password checker.

But at times there can be a problem with the security code and they might not reach you within the time for which the session is effective. So you can get it unblocked online.

Issues with Security Code: Security code may at times take longer than expected and in such instances, it is decent to get your account unblocked online by requesting and entering a code. In case you have never tried unblocking the account here then you can start here:

• If you did not receive your code at the phone number entered make another try or try a different number by clicking I do not have a code and you will be presented with a different opportunity to request a code.
• If nothing works, try using a phone that accepts text messages easily and does not create a problem for you.
• If you have received the codes make sure that you have entered the numbers in the body of the message and not at the header.

Conclusion

Follow the above simple steps to get your account unblocked. In case the problem persists then you can always reach out to the Yahoo Customer Support wizards to get the trouble best resolved.
