Recovering a forgotten username or password

If you can't recall your login details, select "Forgot Username?" or "Forgot Password?" on the sign‑in page. For a forgotten username, you'll be asked for the email address linked to the policy; an email with your user ID will be sent instantly. For password reset, provide the same email, answer the security question, and follow the emailed link to create a new password that meets the required complexity (minimum eight characters, a mix of letters, numbers, and symbols).

Mobile‑first considerations

Fidelity's site is optimized for handheld screens. On iOS or Android, you can add a shortcut to your home screen: open the site in Safari or Chrome, tap the share icon, and choose "Add to Home Screen." The shortcut opens a web‑app view that loads faster and retains your login session longer than a typical browser tab. Ensure your device's operating system is up to date; older versions may block secure cookies, causing repeated log‑in prompts.

Common login problems and fixes

Several issues can prevent successful entry:

  • Browser cache – Stale cookies may interfere with authentication. Clear cache or use an incognito window.
  • Two‑factor authentication (2FA) – If you enabled 2FA, you'll receive a code via SMS or an authenticator app. Enter the code promptly; it expires after five minutes.
  • Account lockout – After five failed attempts, the system locks the account for 30 minutes. Use the "Unlock Account" link in the email notification to reset the lock.

Security best practices for mobile access

Because life‑insurance data is sensitive, follow these safeguards:

  • Enable device‑level passcodes or biometric locks.
  • Never save passwords in plain‑text notes; use a reputable password manager.
  • Log out after each session, especially on shared devices.
  • Regularly review the "Activity Log" in your account for unfamiliar sign‑ins.

When to contact Fidelity support

If you encounter error messages such as "User not found" after confirming your credentials, or if you suspect unauthorized access, reach out to Fidelity's customer service. Call the toll‑free number listed on the login page, or use the secure chat feature after logging in as a guest. Have your policy number and a government‑issued ID handy for verification.
