Hey everyone! I'm currently on vacation in Japan and suddenly my Apple account got locked for security reasons. I tried resetting my password and logging in, but no luck at all. I managed to make some progress, but now there's a 24-hour hold on my account verification. This is super frustrating because I rely on my phone for everything—my transit and credit cards are all linked to it. Is there any way to speed up this process? Can anything be done at the Apple Store? I'm learning the hard way not to put everything into tech!

If your Apple account is locked, make sure you're following the official guidance accurately. Unfortunately, if there’s a wait period in place, there’s typically no way to skip it. It's designed to protect your account from unauthorized access. I totally get it—being locked out, especially on vacation, is a nightmare! Just hang tight; you'll be back in soon.
That’s really frustrating! But yeah, following the process is crucial. If you reach out to Apple support, they might be able to assist you sooner, even if it’s just for reassurance. Hang in there!
