Why am I locked out?

Reach out to att support number, ask the automated bot for billing. (It is easiest) thereafter explain you need assistance with your myatt login. Once you've asked to have the online password reset it will send you a text containing a temporary code, take that to myatt sign on with your user ID and temp password. From here choose a password.

I did this to myself a few times, figured I'd share the light.
