Official Things
For people who have troubles with they're account and did pay on-line (credit card) or by mail (regular or e-mail) the next things applay always. Eg you can go to court and win from GOA if they refuse.
!!) They need to help with keeping private information secure if you wish it, only exception is if they give infront a warning that all information you get or have given to them is usualble any way they see fit. (GOA has a privacy statement)
==> This means they must chance your passwords if there is a security risk, but they must also be sure its the costumer they are talking to.
This is stated in the federal law (interstate commerce), and is controlled within the US by the FBI, all companies dealing with the US costumers need to fullfill also on this agrement.
All credit card companies use this law as base for any transaction they do with costumers (that means also companies who accept credit card payments). GOA accepts, and so applies to this law.
The EEG (all members that is) have fully accepted this agrement and stated a simular law in they're countries. In case GOA is based in an EEG country, they fall again under this law.
So in short,
If GOA refuses to change passwords, and you can prove the account is yours without doubt, you can go to court. This will have the effect that if they are guilty of this, they're credit card accounts will be frozen becouse they then have broken the interstate commerce. This would then ofcourse be instant bankrupt GOA becouse all credit card transactions would be canceld of the last 3 months. And no more payments could be made.
Having explaind this. its BS to claim that GOA refuses to change passwords of accounts. But it can happen that they refuse to chance it becouse they are not convinced its you who is paying the bills. In case yahoo (and any other free mail client) is not considerd secure, you could be in deep $hit.
