Account Management FAQs

Next, visit the Membership Information section about halfway down the page. You’ll see that your current membership plan is highlights next to Account Status. To change your membership, click Select a Plan.

Do people see my contact information?
Your contact information is kept private until you voluntarily share it with providers through private messaging. Additionally, you will notice that everyone on NRFA.org appears with only a first name.
How do I reset my password?
If you’ve forgotten your password, you can use the Forgot Your Password reset function underneath the log in boxes to get a temporary password sent to your email. Once you’re logged back in, you’ll be able to reset your password to something that you’ll be able to remember.
How to I block / unblock a member from contacting me?
If you are receiving emails through the NRFA messaging center and would prefer not to hear from certain users, you can choose to block them. To block a member, go to the messaging center, and select a message from that member. On the message there is an option to block the member. This can be undone if you later change your mind.
Why was my profile not approved?
If you have received an email indicating that your account has not been approved, it is often the result of an incomplete profile or something we found concerning and want to verify. Your account may also not be approved because we may have determined that you do not meet the eligibility requirements set forth in the terms of use for participating in NRFA.org. We also reserve the right not to approve your account for any reason or no reason, with or without notice. Furthermore, we have no obligation to notify you of the reason, if any, if we did not approve your account.
