If you ever get any of those password reset requests, my advice is don't ignore it, but also don't rely on any link embedded in a request, use a trusted bookmark, or type the website address in manually.
I suspect that telephone support folk in this country, are a little less willing to be so helpful, but at the end of the day, their main concern is selling more stuff, so it is not surprising that they are willing to bend over backwards, to reset a password and give access back.
