Unable to reset password

Hello,
First time BMW owner here. We recently purchased BMW X7 and got registered to the BMW App. Unfortunately, I forgot the password and tried to reset it using the app and also their portal. And, this is where my challenges started. I click the "Send link" and I receive an email from noreply@bmw.com with the following message:

******BEGIN OF MESSAGE******
Hi there ,
Your password reset token is ABCABCA1aB2CABc3aBcaBcABCABC4aBC, use it wisely

Customer Support Team
******END OF MESSAGE******

I do not get a link and this 32 character token is way longer for the password screen. I called the customer service and they advised me that a ticket has been created with their IT and I would have to wait for 5-7 business days to get a response. Also, I do not have any other emails from BMW in Spam folder or any other folder.

Has anyone else experienced this? If so, how did you resolve it. Please advise.

NOTE: At this time, I have no access to MyBMW app and I can provide the dealer with another email address and resolve it but, would prefer to use my primary email address.

Thank you for your time.

Thank you,
Sri

I had this same problem with our '22 G30. I had to wait for them to resolve the password issue for the My BMW app first. Once that worked, I then had to delete and re-add myself to the car. Should not be that hard, but I have had other problems with both the iOS app and its interface with the car. If history is a guide, they should have it working fairly well by version 3.11.

Hi There,
Thank you for the response. My issue got resolved over the weekend. I got the email with the link (as it should have been as per their reset message). Exactly as you had stated, I had to delete and re-add and from there it was all fine.

Thank you for your response.
