Hi all, hopefully someone can help here. I was able to successfully link my PJ1999 forum account with EQemulator, turns out my login account was created there.
So now I can see the login account here, but when I try the SMS option to reset my password, I receive no text message on my phone.
Are my characters basically lost now? What should I do?
Thank you in advance.

just login like you normally do and check if your characters are there

Sorry, guess I should have been more specific. I was trying to reset my login server password, because it's been years, and none of the passwords I would have commonly used with an Everquest account worked. So I either forget, or someone hacked/changed it.

if you didn't make the account here goto the eqemu forums to ask for help
in the mean time, try reading this first, it will probably save you some time

Yeah, sounds like i'm pretty much screwed. no idea where the SMS code needed for a password reset is being sent to, but it's definitely not my phone.
I did PM Rogean on the hope's he one day sees it and takes pity on me, but not holding out much hope. Based on how many others I see who have been locked out because of the SMS system anyhow.
Thanks for trying to help!

i would try the eqemu forum
The sms system breaks now and then - give it time and it'll be sorted.

@Mcoy : Thanks, I guess I have no choice but to try the password reset every so often.

Anyone else having this problem? It's something we pay for & need to make sure there are funds for.

I'd imagine it effects more people than we are aware of

I tried today, and the SMS server page appears to have been updated. It works now, so I was able to recover my account.
Thank you so much to everyone who tried to help here!
