char ans;
cout << "Do you want to search for an account again?:"<<endl;
cout << "Y/N or y/n: "<<endl;
cin >> ans;

do
{

**random code**

}
while((ans !='Y')||(ans !='y'));

I just don't get it, I've tried many ways.

ans doesn't change in your loop. So it'll always be in a loop.

Also it should be
while ( (ans != 'Y') && (ans != 'y'));

}
while ( (ans != 'Y') && (ans != 'y'));


So, it should go like that?

However, a better way would be to put the question into a function

e.g
bool askSearchAgain();

then use
1
2
3
 
while (askSearchAgain()) {
 // random code
}
