No, Yahoo does not charge you to recover your account. If you've lost access to your Yahoo account due to forgotten passwords, security issues, or other reasons, the recovery process is free.
Yahoo provides several methods to help you regain access, including using a recovery email address or phone number, answering security questions, or verifying your identity through alternative methods.
To recover your account, visit the Yahoo sign-in helper page and follow the prompts. You'll be asked to enter your recovery information or respond to a verification prompt sent to a backup email or phone number associated with your account.
If you no longer have access to these, Yahoo may ask additional security questions to verify your identity.
Be cautious of third-party services that claim they can recover your Yahoo account for a fee. These are often scams. Yahoo will never ask for payment to help you recover access to your account.
If you're having trouble, it's best to rely on Yahoo's official support options and recovery tools.
For any technical difficulties, you can also contact Yahoo customer support directly.
However, the account recovery itself is a free service.
