How Do You Reset a PayPal Password If You Are Locked Out of Your Account?
To reset a PayPal account password for an account that has been locked out, the Forgot Password option is an acceptable remedy. First, point a Web browser to PayPal's website located at PayPal.com. On the home page, locate the account login area situated in the upper right-hand corner of the website. Click on the round question mark icon that is embedded in the password field. This opens the Forgot Your Password prompt, which begins a step-by-step verification process to validate a user's authorization to make account changes and eventually reset the password.
First, the account email address must be entered along with a unique CAPTCHA code. Next, a verification method must be selected in order to confirm that the person making the changes is the account holder. Verification methods include receiving a text message, receiving an email or receiving an automated phone call. Each method includes a unique code or link that is used to complete the verification process.
Once the verification process is complete, PayPal allows a new password to be entered. The new password must be entered twice to confirm there are no mistakes. If the account remains locked even after attempting to reset the password with the Forgot Password feature, it may be necessary to contact PayPal Customer Support.
