She has, but she thinks he may be busy, and hasn’t been able to get her account fixed yet.

I received an alternate email for her, which I added to her SDMB account yesterday. She should have received an email with instructions to follow.

I have not heard anything else. At this point she has to take action. I can’t confirm her email for her. I don’t have access to her email account.

If someone could tell her to send me an email at [EngineerCompGeek@gmail.com](mailto:EngineerCompGeek@gmail.com) that would be appreciated.

Um, I’m told the problem is she doesn’t have cell service on her new phone. Not sure how that works…

If she can get to the SDMB, she can get to email. All she needs is wi-fi. She doesn’t need cell service.

FWIW, many modern cell phones can use wi-fi for service if cell service isn’t available. You may have to enable it under the phone settings.

She said she used up her attempts at logging in (yesterday), so it must be the “nut behind the wheel” kind of thing. I guess the email must have been received.

Thank you so much.

I began to think I was banned or something. Not really.  
But I didn’t wanna bother you.

I agree. Thx @kenobi_65 and @Gatopescado .  
Very good relayers.

Love you all!!

Yes, welcome back! I was worried. Even after knowing you were OK, I was worried about how long you might be locked out by whatever gremlin affected your account! 🥲
