A problem with an apple ID account.

Hello, my boyfriend forgot the password for his apple ID account, however the support team send him a notification that the new password or recovery code was send to his i-cloud e-mail. However, he can not see it due to the forgotten password.

After that he receive a notification by the support team that his account's password would be reset after 13 days. It is awful - 13 days without phone!

Then he tried to factory reset his account and he received a note that it cannot be deleted/reset without password. I cannot believe it!

Now he cannot neither change the password, nor reset the old account and create a new one.

Meanwhile, I tried to call the support team (responsible in Bulgaria) but they do not work. Additionally I tried to call the team in USA but I was redirected to the Bulgarian team, i.e. I could not connect with them.


Could you please let me know what to do in order to resolve the problem. I cannot image it - 13 days without phone!


Thank you in advance and regards,

Plamena

Unfortunately, there isn't much you can do. The Recovery Process is an automated process and length of time it takes can vary a lot. Apple ID Support can only answer your questions. They can't intervene in or speed up the process.
