Title: Forgot Pin and only 2 attempts left, HELP!?
Post by: isthereanyneed on August 22, 2013, 05:52 am
Shit!

I have totally forgotten my sr pin, I roughly know it but keep getting digits mixed up and now I only have 2 attempts left.

What do I do?

You're in for a wait of about seven days to reset the PIN as a safety measure.  It happened to me with my first purchase once upon a time.  Go ahead and use your last attempt and the waiting process will begin.

This is a joke, I cant believe how stupid I am, I just waited hours to get my btc too so I could have everything for the weekend, it said now I must wait 72 hours?

consider yourself lucky that they apparently cut the wait time by more than half

Hey Man

I had this problem. Just use your last attempt and the pin will be blocked. Then after Three days you can reset it to what ever you like.
It will say your pin is blocked can reset in 72 Hours. Then after 72 Hours it will say Reset Pin click it and enter your new pin.

Best Of Luck

Please read the sticky thread the top of this board, there is a link to the SR wiki regarding PIN resets.

If you can't remember it though you will have to wait 72 hours for the reset, this is for security reasons and is non negotiable. In future secure your pin more safely and you will not have to go through this process.
