    Ok, big problem here lads. I can't access my psn account because Ive forgotten my password. To get a new password I need my DOB. problem is, I set up my psn when I was U18 and thus gave a dodgy DOB which I can't remember.

    Is there anything I can do to get my account and games back or will sony have no mercy? :(

    did you just change the year for your DOB or did you put in a different date too?

    if its just the year, then try a load of different ones

    otherwise you're screwed i think

    actually, try changing it online instead of on the ps3 and you might not be asked for the dob

    I really can't remember tbh. I am doing it online.

    Ok when I try to sign in through media go, it tells me I need to agree to their new policy crap, after I put in my name and pass. so that must mean Ive it right?

    then i get brought to this screen https://store.playstation.com/accounts/manage/cam_index.vm

    but theres nothing there about agree to a policy. Ok, so I go to manage account and try to sign in where it tells me my email or pass is wrong.

    this is crazy :/

    Incorrect e-mail address or password. Please try again. If problems persist, you can reset your password from a PlayStation® system.

    :( thanks anyway
