PIN(s). Forget them from time to time?

Cause I sure as hell does. In Sainsbury this morning. Shopping comes to £70 odd. I stick in the card. 'PIN please sir' (why do they say it?). PIN is ... wtf. Completely blank. Luckily my girlfriend was with me and paid without believing a second I actually forgot it and just trying to get her to pay .

Anyway, anyone here forgot their PIN on some occasion where it turned out to be the last thing you needed happening to you at that moment?

Not usually but I forgot mine the other week, same pin for years then all of a sudden poof it's gone from my mind, something must have pushed it out.

I've had the house alarm go off at 5am and forgot the pin for that. The neighbors loved me.

 

[JBuk]

as rubbish as my memory is I've never forgot my pin numbers

I used to have 4 PINs that all started with the number 3 so was forever mixing them up. Just changed them so they are were all the same, though im now down to just the 2 cards.

Nope cant say ive forgotten my PIN numbers for all my cards as they are all the same.

But when it comes to passwords...geez i cant remember them for the life of me...the worst ones are the visa verified pages where you have to put your password in...ive lost count how many times ive locked my account out.

I try and stay away from those visa verified pages when buying stuff now online.

Remember the pattern, not the numbers.

If necessary, change it to a more memorable pattern.

*PINs.

PIN Number has repitition of the word number!

 

[Cosimo]

Nope, they’re not exactly difficult to forget.

 

[Viper²]

No. It's impossible to forget 1234 anyway.

 

[Ziggy]

No. It's impossible to forget 1234 anyway.

wtf, that's the exact same combination as my luggage!

 

[apeZ]

Nah, I don't forget my PINs, use my card too often.

Online passwords though...bleh. I tend to use variations of 1 or 2 words so they are mostly the same but when it comes down to something like Verified by Visa, and I forgot them, that does my head in.

This.

No, I never forget. And I have found it is because of pattern as Lysander says, not the actual numbers themselves.

I used to remember passwords/pins etc., with ease years ago. Even when they were random assortments of letters. Can't do it now though.

 

[Ironic Namesake]

I forget quite a few of them, the ones I don't use regularly.

Got far too many cards - now whenever I get a new card I change the PIN to a new one so I can actually remember. I need to get onto cancelling some of my cards really as some are never used at all

 

[Azza]

Nope never.


And don't get me started on people who write it on a lil piece of paper and keep it in their wallet or purse with the card itself.

 

[Gackt]

Strangely enough, I don't.
