## Account access [#account-access]

If you're logged in to New Relic and don't see the account or data you expect to see, some causes and solutions include:
If you're having trouble finding an account, some causes and solutions include:

* If your organization has multiple accounts, there's an account switcher at the top left of most New Relic UI pages. Check to see if you can use that to switch accounts.
* If your organization has multiple accounts, there's an account switcher at the top left of most New Relic UI pages. See if you can use that to switch accounts.
* If you're logged into New Relic but can't find an account or its data, you may need to be added to that account. How you do this will depend on your user model: [Original use model](/docs/accounts/original-accounts-billing/original-users-roles/original-account-structure) \| [New Relic One user model](/docs/accounts/accounts-billing/account-structure/new-relic-account-structure/#account-access).
* You may have more than one login associated with the same email address. If you think this may be the case, log out and log back in. When you input your email address, the login UI tells you if you have multiple logins and gives you [an option for seeing all accounts associated with that email](/docs/accounts/accounts-billing/account-setup/troubleshoot-new-relics-password-email-address-login-problems/#verify-email). If you're having trouble accessing an older account, see this [Explorers Hub post about multiple account access](https://discuss.newrelic.com/t/relic-solution-so-youve-created-a-new-account-and-cant-seem-to-access-your-old-account/113122).
* It's possible an admin user in your organization changed [your permissions](#user-permissions) for an account.

A user's [user type](/docs/accounts/accounts-billing/new-relic-one-user-management/new-relic-one-user-model-understand-user-structure/#user-type) is meant to be long-term setting determined by a user's expected New Relic duties and responsibilities. Because user type is a billing factor, we have restrictions around how often a full user can be downgraded to a basic user: **a full user can downgrade to a basic user a maximum of two times in a rolling 12-month period.** If a full user has been changed to a basic user two times in that 12-month period, that user won't be able to return to being a basic user until the start of the next 12-month period. To learn reasons for assigning one user type or another, see [Tips on assigning user type](/docs/accounts/accounts-billing/new-relic-one-user-management/new-relic-one-user-model-understand-user-structure/#decide-user-type).

More user-related billing details:
Here are more user-related billing details and caveats:
* You can see your full user count [in the UI](/docs/accounts/accounts-billing/general-account-settings/introduction-account-settings/#pricing).
* Users with duplicate email addresses are only counted once.
* The count of full users is prorated based on the start of a New Relic subscription, or based on when a user is created as a full user or converted to a full user.
* For organizations on our original account/user model that have a [master/sub-account structure](/docs/accounts/original-accounts-billing/original-users-roles/mastersub-account-structure), the count of billable users in the UI may differ from the list of users you see. For more on this, see [User count discrepancy](/docs/accounts/original-accounts-billing/original-users-roles/users-roles-original-user-model#full-user-count).
* A user can have a maximum of either three concurrent active sessions, or three unique IP addresses in use at any given time.
* A New Relic user can have a maximum of either three concurrent active sessions, or three unique IP addresses in use at any given time.
* For organizations on our original account/user model that have a [parent/child account structure](/docs/accounts/original-accounts-billing/original-users-roles/mastersub-account-structure), the count of billable users in the UI may differ from the users you can see. For more on this, see [User count discrepancy](/docs/accounts/original-accounts-billing/original-users-roles/users-roles-original-user-model#full-user-count).
* The [Standard edition](https://newrelic.com/pricing) of the New Relic One pricing plan includes one free full user.
* Users with duplicate email addresses are only counted once.
* For organizations on our [original user model](/docs/accounts/original-accounts-billing/original-users-roles/users-roles-original-user-model/#user-type), a user may be set as a basic user in one account, and as a full user in another account. In such cases, the full user status takes precedence and that user is considered a full user.
