=Forgot your e-file administrator password?=
 
For security reasons, we are not allowed to reset administrator passwords without following a specific procedure.
 
Your password reset request must be sent by email and paper mail. The paper can be replaced by a fax to speed up the process  =>  '''Fax sending to 28 370 491'''
 
<u>'''The request must be submitted on letterhead of your company with the following information'''</u>
* administrator's login adminXXX
* Email address which is linked to the administrator
* A brief explanation of the reason why you need to change it
* Send your email to '''[mailto:cso.desk@fundsquare.net cso.desk@fundsquare.net]'''
 
The email must come from the administrator stated above and include all information specified in the fax.
If the administrator has left the company, the fax has to be signed by a legal representative of the company.
 
 
Once Fundsquare has received and checked your request, we will send you an email with your new temporary password.
 
<u>'''IMPORTANT NOTE:'''</u> The temporary password has to be changed within 7 days upon receipt.
 
 
If you have further questions do not hesitate to contact our [[How to contact us|'''Client Support & Operations Desk''']].
