Can’t get OTP / security code because you mistyped your email

If you signed up or logged in with something like [email protected] instead of [email protected], VaultCord security emails (login codes, confirmation links, password resets) go to the wrong address. They will not appear in your real Gmail inbox.

This is a common typo: .co vs .com.

Why you aren’t getting the code

VaultCord sends codes and links to the exact email saved on your account.

  • Wrong email on account → code goes to that wrong address

  • Checking the correct Gmail won’t help until the account email is fixed

  • Spam/junk on the real Gmail also won’t contain codes meant for gmail.co

What to do

Option 1 — Instant Recovery Portal (recommended if you can’t open the typo email)

The Change Email page itself points here when you can’t access your email:

  1. Open

    dash.vaultcord.com/recovery

  2. Enter the email you typed when signing up (including the typo, e.g. [email protected]) or your VaultCord verify link (like vaultcord.win/yourname)

  3. Complete the Cloudflare check

  4. Prove the account with one of these methods:

    • A past purchase Order ID

    • Your account recovery key (if you saved one from Settings)

    • Private server settings details (may need matching network/location)

    • Discord bot ownership DM verification

After recovery, reset access and update to the correct @gmail.com email when you can.

Option 2 — Change Email (only if you can still open the typo inbox)

  1. Go to

    dash.vaultcord.com/change-email (or Change Email from auth pages)

  2. Current (old) email: the mistyped one (…@gmail.co)

  3. New email: the correct one (…@gmail.com)

  4. Complete captcha and submit

VaultCord emails a confirmation link to the old email. You must open that link to finish.
If gmail.co doesn’t work / you never get that mail → use Recovery (Option 1) or support (Option 3).

Option 3 — Contact support

If recovery options don’t work:

  1. Open chat on

    https://help.vaultcord.com/ (chat icon, bottom right)

  2. Ask to fix a mistyped account email

  3. Include:

    • The wrong email (…@gmail.co)

    • The correct email (…@gmail.com)

    • Any Order ID, verify link, Discord bot/server proof you have

    • Screenshot of the login / “code not received” screen

Quick tips

  • Always double-check .com vs .co when signing up

  • After you regain access, turn on 2FA and save a recovery key

  • Codes from [email protected] only go to the email on file
