Resetting password on a different email.

I can not wait 13 days to reset my password. How do get it reset as soon as possible. The account I need help resetting the password for is ***@icloud.com the number associated to that account is no longer mine. and some accounts I have is linked to this email how do I get into this email without it taking 13 days to do so. Is there any other way I can get into the account? Maybe with security questions, maybe send an email to my current email so that I can reset the password. Thanks so much.

The only other way to get into the account is to remember the password and sign in.


The Recovery Process is an automated process and the 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. The article below has some suggestions to shorten the the time the process takes.
