If you see this message, it means your login details have been found in a data breach. This could happen if you’ve used the same email and password for multiple online accounts and one of your other accounts has had a data breach.  

As a precaution you’ll need to change your password before logging in. To do this you need access to your email account. If you don’t have access, contact us for help.

We continually check the latest breach data from around the world, including recent breaches that aren’t yet widely known about. While we can detect when your details have been found in breach data, we can’t tell which website, app or service is the source of the breach.

If you've tried to log in too many times with an incorrect password, you'll be blocked.

To fix this, select 'Forgot Password?' on the Password screen.

1. Check if the reset password email is in your junk mail folder
2. Check if your inbox is full
3. If neither of these is the issue, try repeating the 'Change your password' process
4. If you still don’t receive the email, speak to your email provider to see if they've blocked the message. Otherwise you can confirm we sent the email if you chat with us.

Try these troubleshooting steps:

• Check that we have the right mobile number on your account.
• Check your network connection. You’ll need a mobile device signal or Wi-Fi connection to receive an SMS.
• Check ‘Airplane mode’ is turned off.
• Check ‘Notifications’ are turned on. You won’t receive notifications if ‘Do not disturb’ is turned on.
• Check if your text message inbox is full. If it is full, you may not be able to receive messages.
• Check your blocked contacts. If you’ve blocked ‘AGL’, you won't receive any SMS verification codes.
• If none of these steps help, select Didn't get a code? Resend at the bottom of the 'Verify it's you’ page during the sign in process and start again.
   

If you’re still having trouble you can start a chat.

For your online security, we no longer send two-factor verification codes via email when you sign in. Verification codes are sent by SMS.

• Check you’re entering the right code, it contains 6 digits.
• Make sure you’re entering the code within five minutes of receiving it.
• Select 'Didn't get a code? Resend' at the bottom of the ‘Verify it's you’ page to request a new code and try again.
• Check we sent the code to the right mobile number. You can check by starting a chat.

If you need more than one user to access the same account, you’ll need to contact us.

Try these troubleshooting steps:

• Make sure your device, operating system, and browser are all up to date. 

• Make sure your passkey hasn’t been deleted from your account or device.

• Make sure you’ve deleted any old or inactive passkeys from your device’s password manager. Passkeys deleted from your AGL My Account can still sit in your device’s password manager even though they're inactive.

• If you’re still having trouble, you can sign in using your email and password instead. If you’ve forgotten your sign-in details select I don’t remember my email or Forgot password? on the sign in page.

Before you can sign in with a passkey, you need to set one up. To create one:

1. Sign into your account using your email and password.
2. Enter your 6-digit verification code.
3. If your device is passkey compatible, you'll see a prompt to create a passkey.
4. Follow the prompts to set up your passkey.

You'll be able to use your new passkey the next time you sign in.

If a passkey has been deleted from your account or device, you'll be prompted to create a new passkey during the sign-in process.

Make sure you delete the old passkey from your device’s password manager.

If you sign in on a different or new device using your password, you'll be prompted to create a new passkey during the sign-in process.

This means you don't have a passkey set up on the current device. You can either scan the QR code with another device that has the passkey, or use your email and password to sign in.

If you’re still having trouble you can start a chat.
