i just called and they will send you another card out with your password but it takes 7-10 days to get it. when calling make sure to prompt the number that states you are on a rotoar phone you get through quicker. to make transaction you have to call the thrift line 1-877-968-3778. you have to know your pin number when calling,if you don't know it you have to get a new one another 7-10 days---- so if you don't know it--- might be to the g-fund until you get your new password

TSP Is Now Using Account Numbers

Yes, I just went in.

you have to use the new 13 digit account number.

And I almost forgot my password- I entered it incorrectly the first time.

Dang- it's getting so bad that I figure this is TSP's way of reducing interfund transfers- make it so hard to do that you just throw up your hands, and hope that it's there when you are ready to retire.

Now have to keep a little black notebook with all my passwords (approaching 25 different ones- with different rules...)

Thank you Al Gore for inventing this stuff......

For those of you who did not get the "golden" AKA BLUE ticket, you can still make an IFT by calling the thriftline. I just did it and it only took about 4 minutes.

Good Luck

There are several programs that will encript your passwords on your computer and when you want to go to a site like TSP.gov you just have to enter the master password for all of your sites. AI ROBOFORM is one such program. You can save up to 10 passwords (for 10 sites) for free; above 10 and you have to pay some bucks.

Again, no problem with mail delivery. HOWEVER, talk to me how half of the post office boxes are rented by people in Mexico!

I don't get it. Why should we be concerned if someone from Mexico rents one of your post office boxes? Unless you live close to the border, seems like the people from Mexic0 would have too far to travel to get their mail.
