Resolving Access Challenges
⚠️ Cannot access myezbiz / Forgot my password
Cause: You may have forgotten your password or username, or your account may be temporarily locked.
Solution: We know being locked out is stressful. The fastest fix is to visit the Login page and click the Forgot password? link. You will be prompted to enter your Username / Advisor Code and the email address registered to your account. Foresters will send a temporary password to that email. Use this temporary password to log in, and you will then be asked to create a new, permanent password.
⚠️ Login credentials not working after a reset
Cause: Sometimes, after a password reset, a cached login or immediate re-attempt can cause issues. Ensure you're using the newly issued temporary password correctly, and then setting a new one.
Solution: After receiving your temporary password, return to the login page. Enter your producer number and the temporary password. The system will immediately prompt you to change it to a new password of your choice. Ensure your new password meets complexity requirements (e.g., length, mixed characters). If problems persist, clear your browser's cache and cookies or try a different browser.
⚠️ Account registration issues for new producers
Cause: New producer account registration has specific requirements, and errors can occur if information like the upline producer number is incorrect or if you already have an existing producer number.
Solution: Registration is exclusively for new Producer accounts. If you already have a Foresters Producer number, you cannot use the new registration process. For new registrations, ensure you have your direct upline Producer number handy, as it's required. If you encounter issues, contact Foresters Sales Support for assistance.
