Experiencing difficulties logging into your Morgan Stanley account can be frustrating. Whether you’ve forgotten your username or password, or your account has been locked due to security reasons, Morgan Stanley Client Serve is available to guide you through the necessary steps to regain access. This guide outlines common login issues and provides clear instructions on how to resolve them efficiently.
Recovering Your Username
If you have misplaced or forgotten your Morgan Stanley Online username, the recovery process is straightforward. On the login page, simply locate and click the “Forgot Username” link, typically found below the username entry field. You will then be directed to the “Account Access: Forgot Username” page. Follow the on-screen prompts, which will likely involve verifying your identity through security questions or providing your account number.
Once you successfully complete the username recovery process, the system will display your username. Make sure to note it down in a secure location for future access. After retrieving your username, you can return to the main login page to proceed with logging in to your account.

Resolving Password Issues
Password related problems are another common hurdle for online account access. Morgan Stanley client serve offers several avenues to address these issues, ensuring you can quickly and securely manage your investments online.
Forgot Password? Resetting is Simple
If you can’t recall your password, initiating a password reset is a simple process. Similar to username recovery, locate and click the “Forgot/Reset Password” link on the login page, situated below the password field. This action will redirect you to the “Account Access: Forgot/Reset Password” page.
Here, you will be prompted to enter your account number exactly as it appears on your Account Statement. After verifying your account, you’ll be guided through creating a new password. Ensure your new password meets the specified security requirements, which typically include a mix of character types and a minimum length. The system provides real-time feedback, using green checkmarks and red ‘X’ marks to indicate password validity and match.

Account Locked or Invalid Password?
Encountering an “Invalid Password” message means the password you entered does not match Morgan Stanley’s records. You have a limited number of attempts to enter the correct password before your account is temporarily locked for security purposes.
If your account gets locked due to multiple incorrect password attempts or other security concerns, you may see a “Your Account has been Locked” screen or a “We are unable to verify your information” message. In such cases, look for an “UNLOCK” option on the screen. Clicking “UNLOCK” will initiate the account recovery process, often requiring you to verify your identity using security questions, your Social Security Number (SSN) or Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN), and your Account Number.
