If your credit card has been locked due to several incorrect PIN entries, you can easily unlock it yourself by entering the correct PIN at an ATM. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to proceed:

Steps to unlock your credit card

  1. Unlock card in Candis

    Open the card in Candis and select "Unlock card". This will also display the PIN again.

  2. Go to an ATM
    Visit an ATM of your bank or another provider.

  3. Insert your locked credit card
    Insert your card into the ATM as usual.

  4. Select an action that requires PIN entry
    Choose an option where you need to enter your PIN, such as "Withdraw cash."

  5. Enter the correct PIN
    Now, enter the correct PIN that you may have entered incorrectly before.

Result:

Once you enter the correct PIN, the number of incorrect attempts will be reset, and your card will be unlocked. However, no transaction, such as cash withdrawal, will take place, and the process will be canceled.

Note: If you've forgotten your PIN or still have trouble unlocking your card, please contact your bank's customer service.
