Default 2012 - Correct Radio code not working

hi Guys
I just got the 2nd hand 2012 Honda accord DTEX 2.2, (My 2nd one) and I am super impressed with the car

However the radio code is not working, I pressed 1 and 6 and the power button, and it gives me the serial number, I also called Honda support and they confirmed the code is correct, based on the car reg and chasis.
I have tried 9 times and given up. The support website chat, says they will charge me £15 if I bring it in for the correct code alone.

I searched for hacks and found one online which says, if I press and hold the power button for 40seconds it would reset, but this does not work on my car

kindly advise
many thanks
Ehi

welcome to the forum. I have taken my car into the Honda dealership and have not been charged to date to reset the radio in 3 different Hondas I've owned. (Ca.) have you called your Honda dealership In your area to see what they charge.
