Email and account problems we help with
Email often ties into everything else — phone, computer, banking alerts and shopping accounts — so a lockout is stressful.
Sign-in errors and lockouts
Wrong-password loops, unexpected verification prompts and accounts locked after suspicious activity.
Mail not sending or arriving
Messages stuck in the outbox, missing incoming mail and full mailboxes.
Email on new devices
Gmail, Outlook, BigPond and iCloud set up on phones, tablets and computers.
Securing a compromised account
New password, checked recovery details, removed forwarding rules and two-step verification.
What we can and cannot do
Official recovery only
We use each provider's own recovery process. We cannot reset someone else's account or get around the provider's security checks.
You keep your passwords
You enter your own passwords. We help you store them safely if you want.
Remote or at home
Settings problems on a working computer can often be done remotely. Multiple devices and lockouts are usually easier in person.

How a home visit works

We explain what we found before extra work proceeds, including whether the issue can be fixed during the visit or needs parts, provider help or specialist repair.
We test before leaving
Where possible, we test the service on the devices you use day to day so you can see the result before the appointment wraps up.

Questions
Email and account help FAQs
How much does email help cost in Wollongong?
A scheduled email and account visit starts from $160. Simple settings problems on a working computer may also suit online remote help.
I am locked out of my email. Can you get me back in?
We guide you through the provider's official recovery process. Recovery is controlled by Google, Microsoft, Telstra or Apple and may need access to your recovery phone or email. We cannot bypass it.
Why does my email work on my phone but not my computer?
The two devices may use different apps or settings, or one has an old saved password. We compare the settings and fix the device that is out of step.
Why will my email not send?
Outgoing server settings, a full mailbox, a changed password or a security block from the provider are common causes. We check each and send a test message.
Can you help with BigPond email?
Yes. We help with BigPond and Telstra mail settings and sign-in on computers, phones and tablets, using Telstra's current settings.
What is two-step verification and should I use it?
It adds a code or approval prompt when you sign in. It makes accounts much harder to take over, and we can help set it up so you do not get locked out.
I think my email was hacked. What should I do?
Change the password from a trusted device, check the recovery details and forwarding rules, and switch on two-step verification. We can help with each step and check the computer for malware.
Can you set up email on my new phone or laptop?
Yes. We add the account, check contacts and calendars sync where expected, and send a test message.
Can you move my old emails to a new account?
Often, yes, depending on the providers involved. We explain what can be moved before starting.
Do you need my email password?
You type your own passwords during the visit. We never need your banking details or one-time codes for other accounts.
