I have the same problem, the "lost your security key"-option doesn't show.

The error now says "The CAPTCHA value could not be validated", but I can't find any CAPTCHA to enter.

I most likely had the wrong password saved on my current PC so it might be a lock-out.

Is the lockout time-based or does it have to be reset by costumers service?

 

I have my actual password back and the game gives the "lost your security key"-option but that link doesn't work, it sends you to http://www.swtor.com/support

which doesn't give you the option to remove you security key.

 

EDIT: Tried to log in on the site on another PC at a friends house to remove the security key. It worked, no CAPTCHA. Whether it was the different PC or they removed the lock, I don't know.

I'm curious about this.  I've read every post relating to security keys..  I've tried 3 computers, 2 operating systems, iphone, ipad, and android.  No matter what platform I try to log in from, my username and password work, emails are verified, but I don't get any option to send a one time code or reset the security key.  It just goes to the security key code page and says to contact customer service.  Even the original FOB doesn't work.  Frankly, I have no desire to call customer service and given the amount I've already spent on the game over the years, this BS just tells me it's time to support another developer.

It may of been a different web browser ? , have heard some browsers not internet explorer/edge do not display as expected.

For a long time I thought they had changed the system. It turns out you have to use the same password as the one used for EA and Origin. My Password manager still had a SWTOR-only password. If only EA had some more direct ways of alternative two-factor login (one time email, SMS).
