Do you have more than one DC? Maybe the change has not replicated to the one they authenticate to, I have seen that happen before, especially over a WAN.

we have three dc is there a way to force this
Try resetting the password using enhanced password. I.E (P@S5w0rd!1) But make it longer and use at least  2 upper 2 lower 2 special an d2 numbers in the password and also verify the the account is not locked out and has no login restrictions. If all else fails you can delete the account and recreate it keeping in mind this will change the account SID. You want to avoid this if the account is tied to any services provided by your domain I.E SQL or Sharepoint etc... If you can provide more detail I can help you better.
