    MY UAN is linked with a PAN card. I forgot my password when I’m trying to reset the password its asking whether to send otp to the number which is not active now, so when I’m trying to reset the password by clicking forgot password and gave all the details it’s showing only aadhar option for me there is no PAN card option. what should I do is it a browser problem or website. please suggest a solution.

    Dear sir,

    I forgot the passowrd and to set new password my mobile number also changed. So when I go to the next approach as a process for login, it asked aadhar card no , but when I gave aadhar card no other gave me error saying details are not matched. I think this is because name on the aadhar card is different and name on pancard which means name in the pf account is different. How can I login to my account in this case, please suggest

I forget my UAN password and also registered mobile number suspended from market. When i trying to change my mobile number through PF portal by entering name and DOB then showing incorrect details but as per HR team there is no issue from our side all the updated details are correct. If all the details are correct so why i am not able to change registered mobile number.
    Multiple time concern discussed with HR team but nobody helping me and guiding me to contact with PF department. From last 1 year i am facing the same issue but till now problem not resolve.
    I more thing my PAN and adhar number not updated in that pf account so how can i verify details to change mobile number.

    Please advice me.
