Password and sign in trouble

Usually, people forget their passwords a lot and this is among the most frequently reported issue in yahoo mail as well. So, if you have forgotten your password, just using the yahoo password recovery option will offer you all the help you need. The password recovery protocols across distinct Email service providers are similar so like Gmail or Microsoft account, you have to establish confirmation for your identity as the real account owner in yahoo too before you make any changes. So, whenever you create your account, make sure that your yahoo email contains complete updated information on your contact details. Confirmation codes, temporary passwords are sent to the linked phone number or email address so if you have not mentioned both, ensure that at least one of them is mentioned in your account security settings.

Account recovery

If you have lost access to your account even when you are using the correct password then you must check credential fields for any typographic error. A simple caps lock error may result in locked account if you finish the attempts. Although, it is your own account so you can use the account recovery option, get your identity verified through confirmation or other means of verification and then get access to your yahoo account again. 

Personalizing Yahoo mail

Another commonly complained error is that most users wonder why yahoo needs personal information but the reason is simple. Adding personal information makes it easy for yahoo as well as users to identify, recover and protect the account from hacking and other similar security issues.  You can also customize your yahoo account for organizing the messages, calendar information, contacts, etc better as archiving through labels and preferences will make it easy for you to search old information.

Furthermore, a common occurrence has been the ongoing third party fraud services in the past so you should never give your personal information to anyone on phone or in person unless you have complete proof of their authenticity. Also, yahoo wouldn't need your billing or credit information unless you bought a product from them so don't given away your personal information on phone to those who claim to call you to check whether your yahoo is working okay. Authentic and reliable third parties never make sure calls and nor does yahoo. Besides, technical help from Yahoo is free of cost and decent, actual third parties don't cost much so keep looking for suitable deals when you need outsourced support.
