    Didn't like by security phrase so now currently in limbo. Don't you love system upgrades.

    I just checked if its just the 'Activation' bit that ain't working by trying to login with my new username/password but unlike earlier it wont let me login now.
    But like you say at least its Friday night, plenty of time for them to fix it.

    I blame Ironwolf, reckon he's trying to get X-O parent companies SP down to what he's got it in his watch list ;)

    Exactly.


    Edit: Just tried to login and it seems to be working again now.

    Just bought a few more shares on the new x-o website and like it much better.
    Instead of using a 4 digit trading pin you can't change to something you can remember (so I had to write it down :o ) you use a random selection of characters from a security code (you can change to something you can remember so don't need to write down) to log in. Seems much more secure.
    Also all the share prices in your portfolio are live so you can check them every few seconds ;)
    Not sure thats an advantage though, as wiser heads than mine have said you should only check your share prices once a year when you rebalance, or the normal ups and downs in share prices might shock you :eek:
