Registration Problems

[jimbo68]

My Registration runs out end of July so have re-registered on wednesday 23rd june & on the 26th june, on both occasions i got an email straight back saying thanks for registering & that i will receive an email within 24hrs if my photo is ok, as of yet heard nothing back is anyone else having probs.

Some of my friends had problems registering. Think we eventually worked out that it fails if the photo is the wrong way around i.e. landscape rather than portrait or vice versa.

yeah, I have submitted a couple and am yet to hear. Understand that they must be really busy so giving them time. I've assumed that you don't get any sort of rejection email if your photo is not compliant though. Will give it until mid-week then take an all new registration compliant photo.

I've just re-registered myself and the e-mail reply says we will receive an e-mail within "24 working hours", so they might as well just say 3 working days in other words. I read it just as 24hrs at first too.

Massive déjà vu moment here and all that - this all sounds like very much par for the course to me

There's not necessarily anything wrong with your registration or indeed any real problems at all. Registrations often take a week ... or 2 ... and sometimes even 3 to get confirmed or otherwise when they first open again. I don't think anyone at GFL/See seriously expects *that* many eager beavers sending their stuff in quite so soon and all that so there's probably no one really checking or anything until someone eventually realises there's a massive great backlog to sort out

The "confirmation within 24 hours" or whatever NEVER happens at the start anyway. I think the last time I registered when it reopened, it took around a couple of weeks to get anything other than the initial e-mail back despite knowing that all would be good as it's the exact same piccy and so on that I always use. Haven't bothered registering for 2011 yet, probably no need to unfortunately but may do one anyway just in case of (hopefully) imminent lottery wins, currently unknown rich uncles leaving me shedloads of do$h or something similar ! I think I would put (a significant sum of) money on it being at least a week or 2 before getting the official confirmation tho. so almost certainly no need to panic and register several times if you haven't heard anything just yet. It's not like Glasto 2011 is next week is it and tix aren't even likely to be on sale until October at the earliest I would guess anyway. Give it plenty of time if you're reasonably sure that your piccy etc. will be OK
