Title: Ugh -- think I have forgotten my PIN
Post by: elliottsmith2013 on September 05, 2013, 08:34 pm
I just tried to do a transaction and used the pin that I've always used and it says wrong PIN. I've completed a couple of transactions, but it's been awhile, so maybe it's not the PIN i thought it was. All of which is preamble to ask, gulp, is there anything to do if you can't remember your PIN other than kiss your bitcoins goodbye?

Keep trying. If you get it wrong one too many times your account will be locked and at this stage you send support a message. They will reset the PIN for you, but only after 72 hours has gone by.

This happened to me a while back.  Messaged support, but by the time they responded I remembered it.  Hope it comes to you.
