Password Reset to Phone No Functioning - Followed by E-mail Confirmation
I have been attempting to reset my @ATT.NET e-mail address password for several weeks now using the AT&T Reset Password page, which I had used without issue in December, but am now having issues. Specifically, I request a temporary password through text yet no message arrives, despite my correct last four digits of my phone number displaying (and as mentioned, has recently worked). I have tried this using Firefox & Chrome. Interestingly, my iPod is still able to access my mail account and after requesting the temporary password via text I receive an e-mail from AT&T Online Services to the account of the password I am trying to reset stating (Subject) "Your AT&T online password has been updated" and the body text of "We've updated your AT&T password. Dear
I have not been an AT&T customer for 5 years or so. Has anyone else experienced this issue with phone password reset request?
Thank you in advance,
-Daniel

That happened to me also. I called tech support for help and they created a temporary password.

@iamarobot Thanks! Glad to hear someone else having this issue was able to come to a resolution. Do you know, did you call the AT&T Internet Technical Support number (800.288.2020)? There are so many, don't want to get lost being shuffled around between departments.
Thanks,
Daniel

No problem!
It is pretty confusing once you dial that number and took time for me to get to the right department. I think I got lucky when I said tech support.
