Temporarily cannot log in to LuxID

Why am I temporarily blocked?​

LuxID's security systems defend against unauthorised access attempts. When substantial suspicious activity is detected from a particular network or location, LuxID may temporarily block sign-in attempts to protect your account.

If you are temporarily blocked, your account is still active and secure. The block is a precautionary measure.

Why did this happen to me?​

Being temporarily blocked does not necessarily mean you personally did anything wrong. The most common reasons include:

  • Shared network abuse - Someone on the same network as you (such as a public Wi-Fi, VPN, or corporate network) committed malicious activity.
  • Too many sign-in attempts - Multiple failed sign-in attempts in a short time (e.g., entering the wrong password repeatedly).
  • VPN or Tor usage - Anonymisation services are frequently used by malicious actors, so connections from these networks are subject to stricter security checks.

What can I do to sign in?​

If this is you and you were not doing anything wrong, try again later. If you are still blocked, contact LuxID support.

How to prevent this in the future​

  • Make sure you are not unknowingly the source of suspicious traffic (e.g., malware on your device). Keep your devices and software up to date.
  • Avoid using networks that are frequently associated with abuse (such as free public VPN services).
  • If you have trouble remembering your password, consider using a password manager to avoid repeated failed sign-in attempts.

Still cannot sign in?​

If the temporary block does not lift after a reasonable period, contact LuxID support.
