Why is my original Apple email using my first and last name with @Mac.com having issues of not be recognized at banks where I have used that email for over a decade? I've been a Mac user since Apple was established and email became a reality.

Hello Newby_mac-com2020,


While we're unable to speculate on why your bank isn't recognizing your email address, we might have a solution.


If you have an @Mac email address, you can use @icloud.com, @me.com, and @mac.com email addresses with your iCloud account. To elaborate, you can use @icloud, @me, and @mac interchangeably and still sign in to the same Apple ID or receive emails. You can learn more here: iCloud: About your @icloud.com, @me.com, and @mac.com email addresses


If you're having issues signing into an established account with your bank, you may need to reach out to them for help to regain access to your account.


We hope that helps.
