Answer: Activation emails are set to send immediately from our automated registration system. You may experience a short delay because it can take a few minutes to arrive in your email inbox due to the connection/band width speed of your internet service provider.
Please check your Spam/Junk mail folder. The activation email may have been automatically marked as spam or junk by the email system. It is worth checking this folder before contacting us.
If you are signing up on a mobile device such as a smart phone emails may take longer to arrive and you may need to manually sync your device in order to receive the email. Please sync your device to see if the email comes into your mailbox before contacting us. Our contact details can be found in the contact tab.

Question: I can’t remember the myAccount password, if I phone or email you can you reset it for me?
Answer: No, Isle of Wight Council employees do not have any facility to view or change myAccount passwords. This is because the security rules applied to myAccount only allow the account holder to change the password. These rules have been put in place to protect the user’s identity and information.
Password resets for myAccount can only be done online, by the account holder. As the account holder you will need to go to your myAccount and use the Forgotten Password option. Follow the instructions and then a password reset email will be sent to your (account holder's) email address, with instructions on completing the process. Once the process has been completed you will be able to reset the password.
