Lost And Forgot Password

Dear concerned, This is yahoo email user now in Oakland, California. My question is that I opened a yahoo id some times in 2005 in Nepal(a country lying to the north of India). The Id was [email protected]. But in 2008 when i entered USA, my friends told me to change the id and so I made another one which i am using now.([email protected]). its been nearly two years that my old id hasn't been used. So I forgot my password and all security questions plus my date of birth. All i  know is that it was opened in Nepal. Since I have some important docs in there, I want to use that email id. Is there any ways that i can get the password. I  can even say some of the mails that are there for verification, if needed. please help me. my present id: [email protected] name: Tilak tender poudel phone 5105752453 thank u so much.

You can get a new password, a Yahoo! ID reminder, or both. If you forgot your Yahoo! ID or password, go to the Sign-in Problems page.

If you forgot your Yahoo! ID, you need to provide three pieces of information so we can confirm your identity:

  • Your birthday
  • Your ZIP or postal code (at the time you created your Yahoo! account or when you last updated it)
  • Your alternate email address -Note: You must have access to this email address
  • Country code (at the time you created your Yahoo! account or when you last updated it)

Be sure to provide the same information you gave the last time you registered for a new Yahoo! ID or password or the last time you updated your account.

If you forgot your password, you can create a new one. But first you’ll have to provide the following information so we can confirm your identity:

  • Your Yahoo! ID
  • Alternate email address, mobile phone number, or the answers to your secret questions

A Reset Your Password link will be sent to your alternate email address. Click the link and enter your new password in the Reset your password page.

If you entered your secret question incorrectly or forgot what you originally entered, for security reasons, we cannot tell you what your Yahoo! ID is or let you create a new password.
