Title: Account hi-jacked?
Post by: petrol on October 04, 2008, 03:41
Anyone having problems getting into their SV account?

I can't.. The answer to the question for receiving your password was also changed..
I already contacted support and I hope they will answer soon.

Well, I cannot log-in to my account either...

Post by: petrol on October 04, 2008, 04:54
Ok, I heard someone else also couldn't get in.
Then it might be just a serverproblem or something..

That's a relief, I thought I would have a load of hassle getting it sorted, but if it is everybody, Snapvillage are the one's with the problem! ;D

Is there anyone on here making anything from SV?

Cheer us up
Title: Re: Account hi-jacked?
Post by: PeterChigmaroff on October 04, 2008, 10:10
They are making a few sales for me including non subs. Aug they made more than StockXpert, 123, FT for me. Although I make so little in general it doesn't really matter.
Title: Re: Account hi-jacked?
Post by: Clivia on October 04, 2008, 10:12
I am making a few sales, enough to keep me interested in uploading. I won't upload to sites that waste my time.
I have had a couple of $24 commissions, which are nice! ;D

Post by: lobby on October 04, 2008, 10:29
same here...

the problem is not the money (zero any way)

the problem is paypal account and images...
Title: Re: Account hi-jacked?
Post by: petrol on October 04, 2008, 10:32
I had a whole 3$ there (or something close to it anyway)

same here...

Yeah.. as of now I have different passwords for different sites. Its a hassle trying to remember them all but at least its as safe as possible.

Same here and... just after my first sale...
Title: Re: Account hi-jacked?
Post by: PaulieWalnuts on October 04, 2008, 16:01
I'm pretty sure this happened with them at least once before and it ended up being a technical glitch. But, who knows...

Post by: sc on October 04, 2008, 19:37
I'm another one who can't log in!

Yes, all is working ok for me too now. This did happen before for a day or so and was just a technical glitch. David

I still can't seem to login, i wonder whats up with the site

Post by: lobby on October 05, 2008, 19:01
i logged in few hours ago

Just another reason to write Snap off as a bad investment in time and energy. I can't log in either. Know what? I don't care much. It's been a colossal disappointment ever since their launch. They could switch off the lights there today and I doubt they'd be missed.
Title: Re: Account hi-jacked?
Post by: Tim Markley on October 06, 2008, 06:38
I can't log in and when I request a password update by email they will not accept my answer to the security question. This is a bit frustrating.
Title: Re: Account hi-jacked?
Post by: PeterChigmaroff on October 06, 2008, 09:23
Probably most frustrating is that no one at the SV office has considered checking here or putting up a blog notice telling everyone their system is out. Surely  someone must have noticed by now.

Post by: jsolie on October 06, 2008, 10:50
I guess it's good to know that I'm not the only one having problems.

Hi All -

This problem has now been fixed. You should be able to log in.
Please let me know (via PM or email) if you are still having trouble.

Apologies for any frustration and inconvenience this error has caused.

I’m afraid we had some technical problems with our servers over the weekend. This caused a problem with our login system, preventing some people from logging in.

The issue has been fixed. You should be able to log in with no problem now.

Please let me know if you’re still having any trouble logging in. Sorry about that!

Best regards,

Ryan

They were pretty fast with letting me know there were problems and even sent a nice apology.  ;D

The same problem seems to repeat itself, of the last maybe 10 times I have tried to log in only one has been a success.

Sorry to say, but with almost non-existing sales and this log in problem I'll stop uploading - It's just not worth the bother.
