edited 13 October 2011 at 5:04PM in It's gone, but was it any good?
I've been trying to register since 12.00 and the site has crashed.
Did anyone manage to get their free £5 yet?

    Nope :( I managed to get to the form a few times (although a few links were broken) but I didn't manage to register. The few times I can get through to the site now it seems to be their standard page, so think I've missed this one.
  • I think I might have missed it too, but like you I reached the form a few times but the whole login system is down so it's possible we could have managed to sign up.

  • Oh oh oh, Fuzzy Duck,

    Try to login. I did and it's got my details and everything. No email as of yet, but it must have registered me. I hope you were lucky too (might take a couple of tries as it's still crashing).

    I managed to register at 12:08 after a lot of error messages and changing chrome to IE, when you register you get a confirmation email confirming you have registered.

    Thanks MrsBartolozzi, I'll go take a look (can't get on the site at all now so may be in for a bit of a wait!)

    I do hope that's the case, I lost count of how many times I entered my details and clicked the register button!

    I managed to submit the 'register' form a couple of times, but I had no confirmation email just tried logging in - wasn't recognised... :(

    Mine just went through. Never thought I'd say this, but something works better on IE!!

    IE allows you to go back when the system fails to load the next page (the offline error), so all you need to do is re-enter the password (write your password in word/notepad etc and copy it, then you can paste it into both boxes each time and press register). Chrome won't reload pages like that. Got my email through too. It loads the homepage when you register, no confirmation on screen. Good luck :)
