Just logged in without any problem although I am still not receiving survey invites. Been told that there was a problem with my account and it was no longer active - gave Lauren the info requested but still no points surveys. Strange that I can access the website & have the mini polls there & my points balance showing! Pity the balance is too low to cash in.

Always found Lightspeed good in the past and balance used to build up quickly. I will have to try another e-mail to Lauren but always takes a time to get a reply.

Just managed to complete the register form OK. There’s obviously a technical hitch at the moment.

Good luck with emailing Lauren, hope you're not waiting too long for a reply.

Hi,

I know this is probably in the wrong bit and if it is then I'm very sorry for it and will request it be deleted, however - is anyone else having problems logging into Lightspeed? I keep getting Error 404 whatever that means..?! :rolleyes:

Thanks,

Me too - on and off through the day today. Think they have a problem their end, I'd leave it a day or so and hope for the best!

Had a quick reply from Lauren this time & account now reactivated. I had accessed Lightspeed a few months ago when I was staying in France & have been told this caused the problem. Also that you can have the same problem if you access from public computers eg in library or internet cafe or even a work computer even if they are in the UK. So be warned.

Now just waiting for a few surveys to top up my existing points.

Wow- this must be a new thing! I only got my home computer 2 years ago but have been with lightspeed for about 5 or 6 years (2002) never had any problems with logging on and I used to only ever use a wide variety of different internet cafes! thanks for the heads up on that.

In the past points have always gone on immediately, today and yesterday I noticed the points arent going on straight away.
Anyone else found this?

I've just completed a survey & points added immediately.
This is the first survey I have had for months because my account was deactivated as I had accessed Lightspeed from France a while ago. Apparently this can cause problems but after a couple of e-mails to Lauren everything has been sorted out.
