Error… Cat invasion!
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Okay so my original console ID got banned, I changed my console ID.. Which also changed your serial number i'm guessing because I made a new account on the new console ID and tried calling sony to get it back but they said the serial numbers don't match.. So I am wondering if there's anyway for me to find out what serial number is attached to my new console ID?

I'm not entirely sure, but I'm doing some research now into this and I'll let you know. Also, may I ask what you need this for? You could try using Dumpstatistic which will show all your PS3 information. It looks like this:

You can download it You must login or register to view this content., you will need a dump though of your console...

console ids wouldnt change the serial number, i dont believe the serial number has anything to do with firmware or any software, i believe it is a manufacture code to make sure people dont call and give them the riot act to try and get a free system, on the other hand it may have changed your mac address:p

Chances of getting your CID back from sony are slim too none as in you were banned for a reason either from modding of CFW was detected on your system. Calling them and trying to get it back will do you no good. Also the CID and Serial numbers are totally different. The serials can actually be located on the back of the system where there is a white sticker.
ex: XXXXXXXXXXXX-CECH-4001C
