What happens if I fail authentication?

If you input your authentication code incorrectly the first time, you will have four further attempts to enter it correctly. After five failed attempts your account will be blocked and you will need to contact Customer Services on 0800 008 008* or +44 1604 269452* from outside the UK (24/7).
