Troubleshooting

Forgotten password

  • If you have forgotten your password, select ‘Forgot your password’ to be sent an email to reset it (link is valid 2 hours).

    If you experience difficulty re-setting a new password, ensure you have entered 14 characters which includes capital and uppercase letters, a number and a special character.
  • Check your Spam or Junk folder.

Wrong confirmation code

  • If the wrong confirmation code is entered an error will appear. You will have 3 attempts to enter a valid confirmation code.
  • You may also select ‘Resend confirmation code’ to receive a new confirmation code (via email) to enter.
  • If you have entered 3 wrong codes, you will need to go back to the login page and re-start the log in process (each code will remain valid for 15 minutes).
