HELP! Locked out of twitter.
 
I'm locked out of twitter.

Yesterday I changed my username + password, and now it won't let me sign in. I haven't forgot my password, I don't know why it won't let me in, also it hasn't been hacked because there hasn't been any posts or w/e on my twitter page.

Have you tried emailing them?

Captain.Remy 23-01-2010 03:59 PM

Good. It sucks anyway. :tongue:

No not tried that.

No they don't have a email address to contact.

Try logging in with your email instead of your username?

I've tried that.

Many times with different passwords too.

Still no luck.

Firewire 23-01-2010 04:12 PM

Also I'm not able to use 'Forgot password' because it asks for my mobile number, but my mobile was never signed up.

That's odd, it only asks me for my email address or Twitter username...

When I type my email in it asks me to verify my mobile number, and I type my number in but says 'Unable to verify phone number...'

Nicky. 23-01-2010 04:51 PM

Very odd :\

Have you tried your old username too? (I'm sure you have xD)

Maybe try it on a different browser, see if you can stop it asking for your number? Xx

Jessica. 23-01-2010 05:16 PM

just make a new account!

MarkWaldorf 23-01-2010 05:21 PM

why would it ask you for your mobile number?

Have tried my old username.

Will try different browser just now.

MarkWaldorf 23-01-2010 05:26 PM

did you change the password in capitals without realising? that's happened to me before.

Nope that didn't work.

Also I have tried a variation of different passwords just to make sure. Still no luck.

Callum 23-01-2010 06:20 PM

Eee unlucky!

Firewire 23-01-2010 09:19 PM

Still locked out.

Fom 23-01-2010 09:23 PM

Might just be an error... try again tomorrow. If all else fails there should be a contact e-mail or something for technical problems. if not... then that is really unprofessional of them!

I thought it was unprofessional too because I couldn't find one on the website anywhere.

Fom 23-01-2010 09:27 PM

Have you looked at this?

Firewire 23-01-2010 09:30 PM

N.B. I was locked out yesterday evening too. Not been able to login.

And yes Fom, just read it there, but it basically says I need to request a new password, but it won't let me request a new one because it keeps asking for my phone number, and it says it's wrong.

Firewire 23-01-2010 09:31 PM

But I'll wait a few hours.
