What should I do if I’ve forgotten my PIN?

You can request a PIN reminder if you want to keep the same one. Or you can request a brand new PIN. Either way, your PIN will arrive by post in 3-5 working days.

Note:

If your PIN is locked, contactless won't work until you have used your new PIN. Using a cash machine, or making a chip and PIN purchase will do the trick.
