Use a computer and navigate to the website and recover your password.

Sometimes with the **** showing up, a simple mistake can cause it to fail. I typically fire up the Notes app, type it in there, then copy it (tap and hold until you get copy) and head back to the app that's rejecting it and paste it instead of typing (tap and hold until you get paste). 9 times out of 10 this does the trick.

Good luck!

Sometimes if you use predictive or other means to enter an email or password, it rejects it and you have to type it in. I've found I can enter an email address all at once, back it up 1 letter, add the last letter and it works. It's annoying when you see the email or password and know it's correct but it says no.
