Forgotten PIN number

Rhyme

Yeh, i know... its not an easy thing to lose but ive not been to my bank (AIB) since before Christmas and ive forgotten my PIN... how would i go about getting it retrieved?

Scoops

Contact the bank, I know banking365 can reset your pin for you over the phone, they ask you a few security questions first. AIB have open24 don't they?

The OP

Call your bank, and they'll send a new one in the mail. Simple as. And when you get it, change it to something you can remember.

The fact that this simple 'common sense' process had to be explained to you on a forum worries me.

just think....think really really hard.....i bet u'll remember it. christmas isnt that far away.

You’ll have to ring them and ask them to send it out to you again. It should only take about 3 days.

i think you should forget about having a bank account and just give all your money to your mammy and she'll dish it out when you need a haircut or want to buy a copy of shoot or the Beano:cool:

The fact that you get worried over this worries Pighead.
Rhyme don't worry buddy, the PIN is always your birthday. Try typing in 0131 or 3186 and all will be fine.

Remembering your PIN wouldn't be classed as knowing everything - it would be classed simply as "not thick".

Pighead, with yet another lame attempt - oh no, you implied I was really young - well done. I see what you did there - how subtle and clever! :yaaaaaawn:

Eh what the hell are you talking about ya big ninny? Pighead used the numbers 0131 and 3186 as they are the numbers in Rhymes birthday. She/He was born 31-01-86. I was merely using a combination of said numbers to suggest possible PIN's. You're a bit of a silly billy aren't ya.

Pighead is delighted this Friday morning, because you have without a shadow of a doubt usurped Pighead to become boards.ie most annoying poster.

I'm now worried that I'll forget my PIN some day.

It's 7471. Can you lot remember it for me, just in case I forget?

oh... and you don't need to call it a PIN number... guess what the N stands for!

I was referring to knowing how to get your pin reset, not remembering the pin itself ye big galoot!!

Just go to the ATM and place your hands over the keypad. I never remember my pin I just put my hands there and my fingers remember.

this is actually true, you'll probably remember if you go through the motions...

I have quite a few cards and codes to remember so it can get a bit confusing. Especially if I haven't used a certain card in a while.
What I did was to put them in my phone under fake names, e.g. Joe Soap 0854368738. All I need to remember is what name corresponds to what code - and of course to not lose my phone

Terry

that's my phone number. please remove it from your post. :mad:

biko

Amazing! What are the odds for that? I'll give you a ring later.

stovelid

what does OP stand for? officious pr*ck?

Wow, that OP kid's got problems.

Rhyme, you didn't, like, bully him when you were kids or anything, did you?

AIB are freaking muppets as far as PIN numbers go. I had to have them send me out my card five or six times because they kept on forgetting to send the PIN number, and that's all I wanted. And this all began because the machine swallowed my card because they'd made a mistake on my account. Sound.
