Re: Recovering Facebook account


 

Hey Dan!

I had a similar experience today (including failed text code and weird email code timing) before learning of the outage. I apparently was never successful in getting my password change request to go through, so using the previous one now works. Have you tried your original (old) password?

I was on FB this morning when their problems started, but I thought?someone had just hacked my account. I typed a comment but FB wouldn't post it. I got the sense that someone had changed my password so I tried to reset the password. That first appeared to work but then I couldn't actually log in with the new password. It got weird when I asked it to send me a recovery code (from a "forgot you password?" link).?It sent me a code but didn't accept it. I stopped and tried again hours later. Then, when I asked for a code, I got 2 emails with different numbers! (and it simply failed when I asked to get a code via text.) I paused and for hours again and just tried again. Now it only sends me one number but says it's not the right code when I enter it.
Does anyone have any idea whether FB accounts are mostly still not working? My wife never tried to change her password today and says her account is working. Do I just wait it out or is there something I should be doing?

Thanks,
