1. Contacted gnash. Very helpful. I was a little surprised. Done.
2. Contacted mtgox. This wasn't their first rodeo. Had an automated process. Took a full week and two emails. Done.
3. Coinbase. Didn't bother. Also texted my phone as well.
4. Bitpay. Horrible customer service. No real process. Fuck.
4. Then I realized I could just restore from backup. Got my codes. Disabled 2FA. Re-established 2FA and took backups of my codes. Truecrypted them and put them in a USB stick in my firesafe.

Done and done.

I am surprise to see that mtgox provide better support service than bitpay lol. Tongue

OP, glad to see your problem solved.

Glad it worked out for you. When you create 2FA key with any site, they give you a 'secret code'. You should always store this somewhere. That's the easiest way to get things working if you ever lose your iphone or something similar.

You need the Google Authenticator Plain Text Keys. Perhaps you have a backup in a .txt-File?

If not, you can´t login. Contact the support of ghash.io and hope they are in good mood.

I've changed pools to bitminter since the 51% issue came about. I simply want to withdraw my funds.
I've reinstalled google authenticator on my iphone since the OS wipe and restore. However, I can't logon to the site.

Please advise.

Have you backup the original 'secrets' anywhere? If not... then there's not much you can do.
