I figured it out. I was using the wrong username, but it wasn't telling me that it was incorrect, for some reason. Even let me change the password for THAT incorrect username. Weird

How would the website know you're using the wrong username? You didn't change the password for an account you don't have email access to.

It's in their system somehow. When I hit reset password, and enter the incorrect username, it sends me a reset link for it to my email and I go through the normal password reset process. Temporary password, go back to the page, enter that temp password and username on the login page, which then sends me to the page where I enter the temp, new password and confirm new password. Then tells me I've successfully updated my password

That's why I didn't realize I was using the wrong one because it was letting me reset the password as if it were correct
