I've changed my PW by mistake before, and this is a HUGE pain-- PBS stops working, flightline easybid has to be changed and usually breaks, both of those have to be changed on the phone and laptop and desktop; icrewmax stops working.... etc. etc.
Is there any way to avoid this huge time waster and keep current PW? Anyone else getting forced to do this or did I click something bad by mistake?
I think you're screwed...BUT...when I changed all my Delta passwords (or shall we call it; Synched) the only one I didn't have to change, was my PBS password. PBS is it's own thing, ie. not run through DL Net.
You should still be able to log into PBS, but to get there through DL Net will require your new password (DL Net, iCrew, etc.)
There is a way you can get into PBS without going through DL Net, google up the Navtech website, and look for the Delta platform. They do a lot of other companies bids too, so be sure you've got the right one.
I don't know anything about easy bid, because I've never used it, but from what I've heard, it uses the same passwords you use for iCrew/DLNet, so yeah, you'll have to update that too.
The reason I found out about this, (the hard way) was I wanted to put in a letter of recomendation, for Lolwut

, through Airline Apps, and you can only do that if you have activated your DL Email account.
But if/when you activate your DL Email account, you also have to get a NEW PASSWORD! So after three phone calls, and 30 minutes online updating all my passwords, I finally got it done. BUT my PBS Password didn't change.
Oh, the best part? Now I'll have to do it all over again, every 90 days!
I've had the same password for about the last 10 years, but now, because I activated that damned DL Email, I have to change it every 90 days.
