Question

How can I recover my email when I forgot the alternative email where the verification code is sent?

Community Answer

Check the help/support sections of your email provider's website for instructions. If you use Yahoo, there is no free way to retrieve your email with an inaccessible recovery option. There is an option to pay for a premium Yahoo service, where they might restore your email, assuming it hasn't been deleted from their servers.
