Hotmail/Outlook/MS Bonkers!
I just tried to sign in to a Hotmail address I've used for years. MS in their complete lack of wisdom and good sense took me through a MAZE of security questions, secret codes, to "verify" the account. I entered a email to send a code to. They sent a 4 digit one, when I entered it on the page it said I needed a SEVEN digit code, all numbers.
They displayed a phone number to send a code to, which is not mine, it's one digit off, no option to correct it. I asked for one to be sent to the email addy again. Again it's a non-useable 4 digit one.
Apparently MS and the pips have decided if one doesn't sign in for awhile, someone is trying to hack it. I used to use it more but since they went to the Win 8 wannabe look in "Outlook" I very rarely use it.
After going through their 27 steps to "verify" 4 time, I gave up. I so dizzy now and have a headache.
