How to unlock Yahoo Account immediately?

Step 5: An ‘Account Key’ will be sent to your recovery mail/phone or you may be asked for the security questions. Step 6: Follow the steps and you will regain access to your locked Yahoo! Account instantly.
Method II
When you log in to your account, cookie in the form of packets of data are stored on Yahoo servers. These cookies are the one which helps recognise your Yahoo account for further references. But when someone attempts a sign in using the wrong password the cookies are deleted. And when the limit number of attempts are crossed the cookies expire. This stimulates the Yahoo filters to think account activity as suspicious and thus locks it temporarily or for so called 12 or 24 hours. To unlock or unblock your account you can try to Log in using another Yahoo server. These results in the formation of new and fresh cookies. The new server does not have any knowledge of expired cookies. And you are able to login and access your Yahoo! mail account again. You can use any server listed below. (Try different servers if one doesn’t work.)
