You Have Tried Entering Too Many Codes, Try Again Later.

I forgot my password and tried to reset it using my phone number. A six digit number was sent to me and when I typed it in, I typed it wrong a few times by accident. When I finally typed it correct, it told me I had typed in too many codes. I tried again later (as it said) and it told me the same as last: "You have tried entering too many codes, try again later." What should I do, it has happened three times in the space of 6 hours???

If Facebook determines you've made too many password reset requests, you'll be denied access but should be okay after 24 hours. If you're not, use the form at: http://www.facebook.com/help/contact.php?show_form=disabled.
