Hi, as a new member I’m not convinced that my current problem is not something of my own doing but I am unable to work out what I’m doing or not.

So far today, well yesterday now, I have had to reset my password six times after being notified that I had not entered the correct one. This is despite me making a note of each password I have made. Also there have been occasions when my email address has been deemed not to be a valid one, which is blatantly incorrect as the link to change passwords has been sent there eventually. Thanks in advance for any help given with this.
Richard.

Some mobile devices, when you type in your password, add a space after it and it is rejected.

That is definitely not the cause in this case and I’ve just had to request yet another password change to sign in.
Thanks for responding and at least attempting to help though Riley Blue.

Have you tried signing in with your username instead of your email address?

8th password now. PH insists it’s nothing from their end but having no trouble at all with the umpteen other passwords I use.
Nor have any other site informed me that my email address was invalid....then sent msgs to it????????

You're really keen to sign up to a website that's making it this difficult to sign up biggrin There's not anything that would make it tricky, like a banned IP is there?

Hi, if that was the case and it certainly isn’t why would I even be allowed to post or join?

Are you talking from experience Marcus? wink

Do you sign out everytime you leave?

I never sign out and only very occasionally does PH as me to sign in, maybe once every 3 months or so. You will only need four new passwords a year on that basis smile

Is your password "mybrainurts"?

No, I tick the remember me box each time I have entered a new password. And as I posted previously it seems to have been resolved now.


It isn’t but why would I let you know if it was?

Date of birth always makes a good password for me.
