Flynn 1 Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 I installed ESET Mobile Security on my Android Mobile phone did a few scans and all was well. Then on Good Friday 14th April it refused to accept my password. I sent a request from my locked phone for a 'Reset password' Code request via my email. This is now the 19th April and after NUMEROUS requests from my phone, online via Laptop to customer service I am STILL locked out because I never received ONE email. All over Easter I could hear messages coming through to my phone but I couldn't read or answer them, also I was unable to phone family, friends or colleagues over the Easter period and I am very angry about this. and on top of this I am unable to send photos and videos to my love ones STILL. Can someone please help!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ESET Moderators foneil 342 Posted April 19, 2017 ESET Moderators Share Posted April 19, 2017 Sorry to hear this, if you haven't heard back from tech support, make sure you have a case open by contacting your local ESET partner for support. There are few ways to setup the password protection, and therefore sometimes different options for resetting or disabling. Based on what you've indicated, it sounds like you may have setup Antitheft, and so you should try to reset the password via my.eset.com (or disable Antitheft from there).

Flynn 1 Posted April 19, 2017 Author Share Posted April 19, 2017 Thank you for your prompt response 'foneil' much appreciated. I followed the link you posted and got this...You have entered an incorrect email/password combination Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ESET Moderators foneil 342 Posted April 19, 2017 ESET Moderators Share Posted April 19, 2017 You tried to Sign in to ESET AntiTheft https://anti-theft.eset.com/?wrfsts=true and your email and password didn't work? What I hear happening sometimes is that when some users setup their phones, there's an option to create the ESET AntiTheft login, but users don't realize they're creating a new login--can you try the Forgot password on the Sign in page to reset the anti-theft.com account login, then once you're back in there (assuming that you did create one and can get back in with that email, hopefully you didn't sign up with a bogus/fake email) then try resetting the EMS password following steps 3-5 http://support.eset.com/kb2949/#web Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flynn 1 Posted April 19, 2017 Author Share Posted April 19, 2017 I am sorry that I may have been a bit testy in my last post, but you need to know my predicament I have been locked out of my phone for nigh 6 days...how would you like it??? All I am requesting is an unlock code to be sent to the email address I used to install your software, what could be simpler than that, for I am the owner of that email address and ONLY me knows the password to that account. I am not computer literate but I have been told that these details are logged on your system, so what is the problem here, Please explain !!!! I just want access to my phone back.

Flynn 1 Posted April 19, 2017 Author Share Posted April 19, 2017 Look I am going to instruct my lawyers to take a case against your company, despite after numerous reasonable requests to you to unlock my phone you have failed to do so. So by refusing or merely just ignoring them your company is effectively holding my phone and the information contained on it illegally, and by doing so you have caused me, my family, friends, contacts untold stress, disruption, lose of earnings and unnecessary interference in our lives.

Flynn 1 Posted April 19, 2017 Author Share Posted April 19, 2017 I went to the anti- theft link you suggested typed in my email and got this...An email with instructions to reset your my.eset.com account has been sent to the email address you specified. AGAIN I went to my email and there is nothing from Eset anywhere in my account the same applies to your app on my locked out phone under Reset password...Code requested which when I tap 'states' THAT "ESET will send you an email with the verification code and instructions on how to reset your password". What is this ? Why are you not fulfilling this so called action so as to allow me to have access to what is rightfully mine, I do not remember signing up to this nightmare your software and company have been able to achieve. What is your problem??? Just give me the unlock code duhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flynn 1 Posted April 19, 2017 Author Share Posted April 19, 2017 Hello... Is there anyone there??? Just like your customer service I guess NOT. By the way the ONLY email I got from your company was the one from you to me, to validate the link to this site...how ironic in that I have to come here to try to get redress for an non-action nay an obligation to reset my password, which you have failed to do, just like you are failing on this forum to do by not helping me. What is the problem??? Can someone answer this question, which at least 'foneil' tried..Respect to her or him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ESET Staff MichalJ 434 Posted April 20, 2017 ESET Staff Share Posted April 20, 2017 Hello Flynn, Here are all the options: http://support.eset.com/kb2949/?locale=en_US If you have defined "trusted contacts", just ask them to send SMS to your phone in the desired format, "eset remote reset" which should unlock your phone. I have never used other ways, but this one works for sure. M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
