How to Reset Your DBS Password
To reset DBS account password you need a valid and up-to-date email address to have access to the reset link. While you can change your password, keeping your login detail up to date simplifies resetting your account or password:
1. Go to DBS login page and click “Forgot password”?
2. Enter your email address or DBS username.
3. Choose the email address where you want to receive the password reset email. It must be the email associated with the account you want to reset.
4. Check your email inbox. DBS will immediately send a message to your email address. The email will include a code that will be valid for 60 minutes.
6. Enter this code into the text field on the password reset page and click “Submit”.
7. When prompted, create a new password.
Note: Resetting your password will log you out of all your active DBS sessions.
If you’re experiencing difficulties logging in, your web browser’s cache and cookies may need to be cleared or troubleshoot the error.
How to Troubleshoot DBS Login Problem
DBS isn’t working, maybe it’s a site-wide issue. You could try to use DBS using another browser or device, and see if it’s working elsewhere. Otherwise, you can check on a website like Down Detector, which will let you know if there’s a problem with DBS.
Troubleshooting DBS login errors:
1. Refresh the page.
2. Close the page and reopen it.
3. Clear your cache by going to your browser settings.
4. Try again with a different browser (for example: if you’re on Chrome, try DBS).
5. Restart your device.
6. Make sure that you’re connected to a reliable data or Wi-Fi network.
7. Disable any VPNs or tracker-blocking extensions you’re using, then try to connect to DBS again without them.
Check also that DBS has disabled the account, and if it does, there is no way to reset your password. The only thing you can do is to create a new one and hope that the old one doesn’t come back.
If you already tried all the methods above and you still can’t access your profile, contact DBS support or troubleshoot the error.
Conclusion
You can log in with any email that’s listed on your DBS and if you’ve forgotten your password, you can use the Forgot Password link to reset the password. Once you’ve logged into DBS, you can save your account information and log in faster the next time.
