Hi bichie and a warm welcome here at GeeksToGo!tm
I had many problems activating an AOL account for AIM myself. After I tried the first time and failed, I was redirected to a "you tried too often, get yourself a coffee" page
Anyways, we can not help you retrieve the password itself, as stated in our
-Terms of Use-.
What I can advise:
- Register at www.mail.com and try opening your AOL account through there.
- Get a new AOL account, and keep sending requests to re-open your former account or -at least- help you connect it to your new AOL account...
I was not impressed by the support of AOL either (understatement), but perseverance goes a long way!
Good luck & let us now if you got any results!
