I am having this same issue with an old Apple ID account I had in middle school. I’ve called twice and they keep making me do the same thing and the security questions are saying insufficient information. Did you ever figure it out?

I've had this problem for at least 5 years - I've tried contacting Apple every year or two to see if someone can fix it and they never can. Someone had maliciously used my email address to create an account and so I had no idea what the security questions were...


The 2FA trick works!

I tried to log in from a windows computer first, and while it gave the 2FA option, that failed... but when I logged in from a mac it overrode the stupid security questions. Amazing.

I'm OUT OF MY ACCOUNT for more than 2 YEARS!!!


Tried EVERYTHING, including LIVE PHONE SUPPORT!


NO ONE can help me!


My account if very OLD! More than 15 years!!!


After some point (when Apple migrated the accounts from USERNAME to EMAIL) the problems started


NOW, when i try to login (i KNOW my password!!!) Apple asks me for the SECURITY QUESTIONS!


I don't remember setting up ANY security question!


So, when i say "i forgot my security questions" Apple ASKS ME FOR MY SECURITY QUESTIONS TO RESET MY SECURITY QUESTIONS!!!


Is this the WORLD we live in now???? NOT even a LIVE AGENT can resolve this SYSTEM BUG/LOCK/NONSENSE???


The last tip was "try to LOGIN on an Apple device"... i TRIED! Many times! NOTHING WORKS!!!
