How To Recover Account Access

Use the Assisted Account Access Recovery (AAAR) process to recover access to your Vodien account whenever any of the following scenarios arise:

  • You are unable to recover or reset your password because you no longer have access to your account’s primary email address.
  • You need to retrieve control of a domain name (registered under your name or business) but managed under an account you cannot access.

Anyone can contact us for account recovery. However, the official request letter and required documents must come from one of the following authorized individuals:

Primary requester
