Unable to reset password

Hi,

It appears the password validation isn't working. I have got through to the "Choose a new password" but litrally every password I try is "Strength Invalid" and "Does not meet the requirements"

I have tried passwords with mixed case, over 8 characters, numbers, symbols, none of which contain my username. Everything fails.

Please fix this as I cannot access my account.

Can confirm this is not fixed 😕

 

I have tried to reset my password this morning and every combination I try is "Strength: Invalid"

FYI This is when trying to log into my broadband account.

I've tried multiple browsers on a Macbook pro: Chrome & Safari. No luck.

Hi @ed0906

Thanks for posting and welcome to the community

Does it let you change it despite saying that?

Kind regards,

Hello, 

 

I am experiencing the same issue and followed all guidance in other threads. I am trying to log into to app to get the free speed upgrade but can’t remember my password. I’m sure it was the same password that is used for phone calls but it wasn’t working so have tried to reset with no luck.
