Whenever I try to do this I get the following answer: 

You recently updated your security info

We have a waiting period for the updates to take effect. On 23/8/2013, we'll delete your old security info:

(gives me an alternative email address I never use)

Therefore that means that I have to wait a month for something or other but in a couple of days time my subscription will run out and I am not able to put my new Visa details in the system. There is no one human I can call or email and so I am stuck and I will lose all my emails.  I have had a Hotmail account for approx 10 years and I have a lot of stuff on this account that I don't want to lose.Please could someone advise me how I can urgently edit my bank details and overcome this problem (without too much technical jargon) and in a way that works? Thanks, Patricia
