God Damn PSN!

Trying to sign in to this crap for ages, but the only couple of passwords it would be aren't working - and every time I try and recover the password, it leads me to a "site down for maintenance" page! I wouldn't mind if it were just now, but it's happened every time I've tried for weeks - is the network still problematic in that regard? How the hell am I supposed to recover my account?

I found the same recently, I wanted to sign in on another console and it wouldn't accept my password even though I created and noted it with keepass.

I couldnt change my password online either, that was a couple of weeks ago. I am too scared to sign out of psn to try it on the Ps3 iteslf.

That page has been under maintenance for months now... I've no idea why.

You'd be best calling their support line and asking them to reset the password for you.

Have you tried using the 'forgot password' thing on the PS3 itself?

It sends you an email then. I did that about 2 weeks ago.

It happened to me too. I know my password very well and yet it wont let me log in.
Tried to change my password via website and it is under the maintenance for months now. Tried changing my password via the PS3 and it says that I used wrong details. WTF?

Ill have to talk to them in person. Stupid sony.
