Confirmation Email Issues
  1. I have not received an email to confirm my Quest Diagnostics account. What should I do?
  1. Please check your spam filter — it may be preventing the email from reaching your inbox. If you have tried that and still have not received the email, please contact us and provide us with the email address used to create the account and the approximate date and time of when the registration or the forgot password/username process was completed.
  1. I clicked on the “Confirm my Quest Diagnostics account” link in my email, but received an error message (example: error 403). What should I do?
  1. Copy the entire link into your browser address bar and then press Enter. Make sure that there are no spaces or line breaks introduced in the link while copying.
  1. I received an email when I used the “Forgot password” or “Forgot username” links but when I clicked on the link in my email, I received an error message (example: error 403). What should I do?
  1. Copy the entire link into your browser address bar and then press Enter. Make sure that there are no spaces or line breaks introduced in the link while copying.

Login Issues
  1. I keep receiving a “Login Authentication Failed” message. What should I do?
  1. First, confirm that you have created a Quest Diagnostics account and that you are using the correct username and password. If you are uncertain, use the "Forgot username" and/or “Forgot password” links to verify if an account was created or to reset your password. (During login, make sure the Caps Lock is not on.)

    If you are certain that you have an account and that you know the username and password, make sure that the username shown in the Username field is the one you used when you created your Quest Diagnostics account. (Some Internet browsers may be set to automatically populate the Username field with a username you used on a different website.)

    Also, if you have created multiple Quest Diagnostics accounts on the same PC and clicked the “Remember me” check box, the Username field may be pre-populating with one of the other accounts you created. Make sure when you login that the username is the one you wish to log into.
  1. I receive this message: “Your account has been locked. Please try again at a later time.” What should I do?
  1. You have likely had too many unsuccessful logins. Please try again at a later time. If your login still does not work, click the “Forgot password” link.
