Common Errors
Below are the common errors you might run into when resetting your password.
1. Password is too weak.
To create a strong enough password it:
- must be between 8-30 characters
- must contain at least one number
- must not be easy to guess **
- must not contain slashes or spaces
**A password is considered easy to guess if it uses a common password or a variation of it. For example, the word 'password' is one of those common words that are unavailable. This means a password like "password12345" will be considered too weak and will not be accepted.
2. New passwords don’t match.
3. Attempting to use the same password as before.
