Yes, I have ever experienced something like that. Maybe because I hold a lot of passwords, so it's very easy for me to forget one. The only way out is request the site to send our password to our e-mail account. =) You mentioned 'old e-mail address', does that mean that you also forgot the password ? And if yes, there will be no other way to login again. What other think ?

Yes, I often forget the password, even worse thing is, when registering to use e-mail password also forgot, I really do not have anything about it. So, now I now generally regarded this information, a pen recorded in my notebook. Before I forget or lost, after I get back via e-mail my password. I wish you luck!

I have forgotten many log ins, but usually because I couldn't remember why I signed up or where I signed up. I have different emails for different purposes. Usually sites will email you your log-in information and I try to remember to put those in a pw folder. But there have been times when I forgot to do that, and then accidentally deleted it. I think I started doing this because I was signed up for so many sites that I couldn't always use my same user name and pw.
So many sites are getting creative and stating your pw has to start with a number or letter and then there is a specific minimum amount of characters. Yes, this is how I started forgetting my passwords and log in info. In fact, now that you mention this, I think three weeks ago I inquired about my info for site and I don't think that I ever heard back from them. Hmmmm, that makes me wonder.
Great topic. Happy Mylotting.

Yeah, i think something like this has happened to me where I have forgotten my password and maybe I had used a different email address to register to the site that I requested the password from as maybe I relised I had somehow got more then 1 account. In general, I have lost count how many times I have forgotten my password from sites!
You may recieve your help email soon then, if you have requested password help
