Passwords and signing in problems

Thankyou Mollygo.
I never had either.
I know that Google etc are preventing fraud, for which I am happy, but why can't they do it behind the scenes and not in this cumbersome way!
They have already told me that I am who I say I am so why the 6 hour wait

I don’t know, sorry. Often when I go to sign up for something, an example email is filled in in pale grey perhaps to remind me what I’m supposed to be adding in that box. My phone saves my sites and passwords
I’ve never come across the 6 hour wait though. How frustrating for you.
Hope others can be more helpful.
