Classifieds broken for 2 weeks: No response to emails
Discussion
I've been trying to list a new car in the classifieds for 2 weeks but its been broken and I continue to get the normal technical error. I've been told to email adverts@pistonheads.com but have had no reply despite mailing twice.
I've tried more browsers and machines than I can remember, all of which have the same problem.
What is going on?

I'm very surprised Katie hasn't gotten back with you. Let me try to help...
I don't see a classifieds account for the e-mail address you've registered for the forum. Have you registered for the classifieds? If you have, can you let me know what the e-mail address is? Send it to me via PM.

Its still crashing and I have had no reply to my emails.
It's strange that you don't get asked to log in. I don't see a registration for your e-mail address in the classifieds and I don't see your member id associated with a classifieds account, so I'm not sure how the system would see you as a user.
Can you log out of PistonHeads: http://www.pistonheads.com/members/logout.asp
And log into the Classifieds: http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/manage/mana...
And then try to submit your ad?

Tried to log in with my partners account (its her car I'm selling) - Crash
Click on the link to create a new classified account for myself - Crash
Does it actually work for anyone else? I'm in the IT support industry and have litteratlly tried everything
Different accounts
Different browsers
Different computers
Logged in and logged out
Always crashes, for two weeks, except for once when it gave me someone elses account details.

I'll try and explain again from the top

There is clearly a massive issue though. If the site falls over so much on so many different browerser with different IP's on different machines then there is a fundamental problem and it should not take weeks to be able to submit an ad.

What's strange is it only seems to be you having the problem. I'm genuinely sorry you've had to go through so much trouble to submit an ad, but happy to hear it's finally worked out for you.The good news is we shouldn't have so many problems with the new system that should be out shortly. Thanks for your patience, it's far greater than mine would be.
