Hey @mosi3311, thanks for reaching out to us about this, and sorry to hear that you're having trouble.

 

Could you let me know the precise message you get, when you try to log into your account? Feel free to send a few screenshots my way too (just make sure none of your personal info is shown there). 

 

Also, if I understand correctly, you still have access to the email address linked to the account, right?

 

Let me know more!

Sorry to jump in here, @mosi3311, but where did you send your email?

 

Did you contact our support team and open a support ticket? If so, can you send us the ticket number, so we can look it up in our system?

Hey @mosi3311, my apologies but it's not entirely clear to me if you contacted our Support about this or not. 

 

Could you clarify? If you haven't would it be okay for me to reach out via email, in order for us to have a closer look?

Hi @mosi3311, thanks for clarifying! 

 

You mentioned a 6 digit code, therefore I believe you're referring to our 2FA feature, right? Have you taken a look into this Help Center article, by any chance? 

 

In case this doesn't resolve your issue, let me know if it'd be okay for me to reach out via email, in order for us to have a closer look into this.
