Wrong PIN entered 3 times at POS, card was blocked

[JacqShooter]

I recently accidentally had my debit card blocked when I entered the wrong PIN 3 times. How should I resolve this? Is there an online way or do I need to go to a branch?

Unfortunately no one will help you over the phone or even get to ask you security questions. They just tell you to go to a branch.

Dissapointing, this needs to be made easier, especially after COVID where sitting at a branch takes you 5 hours.
