Can't deploy transfered BitBucket repository

I transferred my BB repository to another user and wanted to deploy the new code with Forge.

First I tried to update the BB repo under my site's Update Git Remote section but it said no go and gave me the public key which I need to include in the BB repository.

After I did that that action passed and my Repository in Forge was updated.

However when I try to Deploy the code I get the following error:

Mon Apr 3 23:54:44 UTC 2017
repository access denied.
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.

Am I missing something simple here?

After some debugging I saw that on my server I was using my old bb user to connect to the new repository and hence the error.

I added read access to my old user to the new repo and all worked.
