Why isn't my Username and Password working?
If you’re a new user, this is typically due to your temporary password expiring. When you register, you’ll receive two emails, one with your new account username, and one with a temporary password. Check your spam if you don’t receive it within 15 minutes. It’s important that you reset your temporary password because it will expire after 10 days. If you’re a returning user, this is typically due to your account being deactivated. Accounts that have not logged in for 120 days (four months) are deactivated for security reasons. If your temporary password or account has expired, or if you need any additional support, please contact us.
