This is now a pattern that I've witnessed on at least 7 new Live accounts. Instead, they just lock your account and ask you to unlock it.
#Skype my account password#
If you can't sign in to Microsoft 365, your password might be incorrect. Enter the sign-in address and password you use to sign in to Skype for Business, and click Sign in. In the top right corner of the screen, click Sign in. This is ridiculous: in effect, you can't have a Live account without giving your cell phone number, but MS won't tell you that upfront. Try using your sign-in address and password to sign in to Microsoft 365: In a browser, go to. To be perfectly honest, I think MS is just harvesting phone numbers - since that's what's required to unlock these accounts. I also created a Live account with a gmail address, and it got blocked too. The new account got blocked too - nobody else knew about it. How Can I Safeguard My Privacy While Using Skype Skype may not be the biggest offender insert link to. If you paste the password, instead of typing it, MS requires you to add a phone number before allowing you to create the account. This data is valuable for targeted advertising purposes.When creating a new account, the password isn't entered twice for verification, only once.If it doesn't exist, it won't take a password, and tells you about it. When logging in, the username is checked separately, before entering a password.It's worth noting that MS makes the following mistakes or odd choices while handling Skype accounts: Testing a new account now, that nobody knows about. The accounts are only used on PCs and a couple of cell phones - installed by me, with the password I assigned. I can't find anything helpful anywhere else. I'm not violating the terms and conditions. Passwords are long and randomly generated, so nothing has been hacked as far as I can tell. I'm using MS's recommended practice of using regular, free Skype (we only have 10 accounts), but it has been a disaster. Does anyone else know what causes this? About 10 times now, different accounts have been locked and needed to be unlocked using a phone number and an activation code.
