Re: Pin number recognition

You can set a new PIN at any time in your STG settings in your account:

Always start your own topic rather than hack a very old thread. Duplicate post deleted.  Thank you.

Thanks - However the problem is not the pin.

I have reset it many many times - it keeps getting rejected by the verification process.

 

P.S. Apologies for hijacking other thread - however i thought it would be useful if similar problems were grouped if no solution was yet present.

Hello,

You can try setting your PIN to something different. You may have a PIN that is currently unsupported, such as ones that start with '0'. There is currently a known issue that users are not told when unsupported PINs are entered.
