Title: Forgot PIN but just remembered after 5 attempts
Post by: Makedabank on August 06, 2013, 08:17 pm

Ok so I'm in an urgency to buy something but I forgot my pin, since so I read that after 5 attempts the PIN will be reset. So I typed in 5 random PINs and now I have to wait 72 hours for a new PIN. However, I just realised that I noted my PIN number in my phone. Is there a way I can get the PIN lock removed now that I have my pin number?

I'm afraid not, PIN resets are automated and cannot be fast tracked for anyone under any circumstances due to security reasons.

I need to set a new PIN but I never set one before. Is there a default PIN, or should I try 5 times on purpose so that I get a new one?
Thank you.

There's not a default pin, you may need to have it reset again.
