Ancestry login problems
« on: Friday 31 October 08 08:16 GMT (UK) »
Anyone else experiencing login problems ?  Can't login at all and it won't recognise my e-mail either  :'(  Subscription up to date.

Yes, I can get into the home page, but when I enter my login and password the 'page cannot be displayed' screen comes up.  It was OK on wednesday night, but last night and this morning, no joy.

Just started happening to me here (NZ) abt 20 mins ago (abt 9:10pm). - Glad it's not just me! Thought the OH had cancelled the payment  ;D  ;D  ;D was abt to chuck his dinner in the bin!!

I notice they seem to have newly put up a header ad (abt a qtr page high!)  for their new UK Inward passenger lists - maybe they are updating their home page design...whatever they did seemed to log me out (I was logged in and active at the time)and now I can't get back in nor can I get it  send me a "forgotton" password email. Possibly their update/upgrade process is still running and we may need to just wait a while?

Cheers

Thank goodness I thought it was me.
Ancestry messed my account up a while back and I figured something had gone awry again when it was telling me to upgrade to see certain info - I've got a world membership so I shouldn't need to upgrade for anything.
Tried to login in with web browser (I was in FTM) and noticed I wasn't logged in (I leave it logged in all the time), tried to log in and it wouldn't accept my details. Figured maybe I was having a blonde moment so clicked the forgot password link (just incase) and it tells me there is no account with my email addy! WHAT?

But now I see I'm not the only one, so it must be an Ancestry issue, thank goodness. Let's hope they sort it out PDQ!
