I forgot my debit card PIN code on vacation once. I had used it daily for years and suddenly it was just gone.

  • A while ago I took the opportunity to go on a working holiday in Australia for 2 years. Somewhere in the first 1/4 of the first year I forgot my debit card's pin number. I couldn't get a new card because I'd have to go to a branch ATM to activate the card. Which was in Canada...

    Fortunately I was able to use my credit card so I was able to survive the rest of my time there. As soon as I got back to Canada after my 2 years away, I went to an ATM and bam, remembered my PIN. I was able to get money. Which was great because I had my backpack stolen right before my 3 1/2 days Greyhound bus across Canada to get back home. I question how I'm still alive almost every day of my existence.

    I completely blanked on my PIN about a year ago. I forgot it for like a month and then suddenly it came back to me out of the blue when I wasn't even thinking about it.

    Then I forgot it yesterday standing at the register for a good few minutes before I remembered again.

    No idea where my mind was.

    I once forgot my pin at a store that only takes debit, had to have my 13yo at the time son pay and add money to his account. It wasn't even a relatively new pin. Remembered it spontaneously like a month later.
