The manual way

Reset your OCBC Bank password in 5 steps

  1. Open OCBC Bank's sign-in page

    Go to ocbc.com, open the sign-in screen, and look for “Forgot password?”. Sites also label it “Can't log in?”, “Trouble signing in?” or simply “Get help”.

    Navigate there yourself rather than following a link from an email or a search ad. Reset pages are the most impersonated pages on the web precisely because a convincing copy collects everything an attacker needs in one form.

  2. Enter the email on the account

    Type the phone number the account uses. If you are not certain which address that is, search every inbox you own for old mail from ocbc.com: receipts, sign-in alerts, notification digests. The inbox holding those is the account email, whatever you assumed it was.

    This is where most resets quietly fail. People request a reset for the address they use today, get nothing, and conclude the account is gone, when in fact the reset went to an address they stopped checking years ago.

  3. Enter the verification code

    OCBC Bank sends a verification code. Type it on the reset page to prove the request came from you.

    Codes expire quickly, usually within minutes. If yours is rejected, request a fresh one rather than retyping the old one, and check you are not reading a code from an earlier attempt still sitting further up the inbox.

  4. Choose a strong new password

    Use 16 or more random characters, and never one you have used anywhere else. A reused password turns one company's breach into a break-in everywhere you reused it.

  5. Store it somewhere sealed

    Save it in a password manager or encrypted vault. Not a note, not a screenshot, and not “the usual one with a 2 on the end”, which is the same password as far as anyone attacking it is concerned.

The Repass way

  1. Finding your OCBC Bank account
  2. Opening password recovery
  3. Waiting for the reset email
  4. Reset email found
  5. Generating a 20-character password
  6. Sealing it in your vault

You never give Repass your current OCBC Bank password. It uses OCBC Bank's ordinary account-recovery process to replace it, the same flow you would click through yourself.

Pick a route

Which OCBC Bank recovery method should you use?

Start with what you still have access to, not with what you would prefer. Every route below verifies you through a contact method already on the account, which is why the answer is decided before you begin.

Still signed in somewhere?

Then change the password in settings instead. You will not need any of this.

You have the phone, not the email

Use the phone route. OCBC Bank texts a code to the number on the account.

You have neither any more

This stops being a password problem and becomes an account-recovery one. Recover the email account or the phone number first.

When it goes wrong

Trouble resetting OCBC Bank?

Access Code, PIN, and OTP must be kept confidential

Never reveal your Access Code, PIN, or One-Time Password to anyone, as they uniquely identify you and are required for account access. Source

Proper 2FA token security is essential

Do not allow others to keep, use or tamper with your 2FA security token. Keep it secure at all times. Source

Verify website authenticity before login

Check that the URL matches internet.ocbc.com/internet-banking and verify the OCBC Bank name in the digital certificate to avoid phishing attacks. Source

The reset email never arrived

Check spam and promotions, confirm the address you entered is the one the account uses, then request one more. Repeated requests can rate-limit you, so wait a few minutes between attempts rather than hammering the button.

Your phone number changed

You will need the account's other contact method. Update the number as soon as you are back in, or the next reset has the same problem.

You think someone else is in the account

Reset first, then change the same password everywhere else you used it.

There is no password to reset

If you originally signed up with Google, Apple or Facebook, the account has no password of its own. Sign in the way you did the first time.

After the reset

Your password was not the only thing to fix.

1Check the recovery email on the account

The next reset goes to whatever address is on file today. If that is an inbox you no longer open, you are one forgotten password away from being locked out for good.

2Check the recovery phone number

Same reasoning. An old number is worse than no number, because it can end up reassigned to a stranger.

3Change it anywhere you reused it

If this password was used elsewhere, those accounts are as exposed as this one was. That is the job Repass exists to do in bulk.

Context

Why are you resetting your OCBC Bank password?

I just forgot it

The ordinary case, and what the steps above are for. Nothing is wrong with the account.

I think someone else knows it

Reset it, then change the same password anywhere else you used it, since that is usually how they got it.

I reused it somewhere else

Change it here and everywhere else. Until you do, the weakest site holding that password decides the security of all of them.

It showed up in a breach

Rotate it even if OCBC Bank was never breached. Passwords travel between sites in your head, not in theirs.

I have not changed it in years

Age alone is not a reason. Being reused, guessable or exposed is. Unique and random can be left alone.

Questions

OCBC Bank password reset FAQ

How do I reset my OCBC Bank password?

Open the sign-in page on ocbc.com and choose “Forgot password?”, enter the email on the account, type the code you are sent, and set a new password. It usually takes a couple of minutes.

Can I reset my OCBC Bank password using email?

OCBC Bank's documentation does not describe an email-based reset. Use the method its help centre does describe.

Can I reset my OCBC Bank password using my phone number?

Yes, if the number is on the account. OCBC Bank sends a message by text.

Can I reset my OCBC Bank password without knowing the old one?

Yes. The reset flow exists for exactly that case: it verifies you through the email or phone number on the account instead of through the password you have forgotten.

Why isn't my OCBC Bank reset email arriving?

Check spam and promotions first, then check whether you requested the reset for the address the account actually uses. Most “no email” cases are a reset sent correctly to an inbox the person no longer opens. Searching your inboxes for older mail from ocbc.com tells you which account is the real one.

What should I do if my OCBC Bank account was hacked?

Reset the password immediately. Then change it anywhere else you used the same password, because that is usually how they got in.

Can Repass reset my OCBC Bank password for me?

OCBC Bank does not document an email-based reset, so Repass cannot drive it end to end. If OCBC Bank asks for a CAPTCHA or a texted code, Repass stops, shows you the page, and asks you for that one step.

Does Repass need to know my current OCBC Bank password?

No, and it never asks for one. Repass uses OCBC Bank's ordinary account-recovery flow to replace the password, which is why it works on accounts whose password you have already forgotten.

Is it safe to let software reset my OCBC Bank password?

Repass generates and encrypts passwords on your own device, and the model that drives the reset is never shown a password, a reset link or a verification code. Those stay local to your browser. Repass does hold a key that can unwrap your vault, so that signing in is enough to open it on any device; you can revoke that key, after which your master password is the only way in.

Beyond OCBC Bank

What else Repass does

Find accounts connected to your email

Every service you ever signed up for sent you an email. Repass reads those to build the list, so you find out about the 2016 forum account before somebody else does.

Reset reused passwords

Reuse is the single thing that turns somebody else's security failure into your problem. Repass replaces them in bulk instead of one painful evening at a time.

Reset compromised passwords

Rotating an exposed password matters more than rotating an old one. Repass does the rotation, on every account that needs it.

Generate strong passwords

The passwords Repass sets are made locally and never leave your machine in a form anyone else can read.

Store passwords securely

Your vault is sealed on your device, and what our servers store is ciphertext. Repass does hold a key that can unwrap it, so signing in opens your vault with nothing to type; revoke that key and your master password becomes the only way in.

Change passwords automatically

Repass drives each site's real forgot-password flow in your own browser, and stops to ask when a site wants a human.

Two minutes from now

Your passwords stop being your problem.
