- We’ll ask you to enter your full password and your username.
- We’ll only ask you to select three random characters of your Memorable Information.
Make sure you have a stable internet connection. If you switch networks, you might get logged off or experience an error message. For example, if you use Wi-Fi at home and then your mobile data connection when you leave the house. If this happens, refresh the app and try again.
