Yes, I’d be happy with a couple of quid a month. But I’m only requesting every couple of weeks at the moment, in part because I’m still not getting any alerts, although I used to and my notifications are set correctly so £5 a month it’s just too much. 

I'm not getting alerts. Checked settings on the app and my phone but still not working.

i know at one point iphones werent getting alerts but thought was sorted in an update.   if you havent already might be worth updating the App.

Hi, have any other FWH’s been banned and accounts deleted today? Apparently they have a new system in place that spots users with multiple accounts. We have 2 in our house (quite within the rules) and occasionally we use each other’s phones to list items. This has been flagged as both of us having multiple accounts (same 2 people, same 2 accounts different devices) and both been banned. I wonder if the new system was made by Fujitsu…..

I was surprised at the recent stats Olio circulated - 10% of customers nab 90% of the stuff, hence the restrictions in numbers of collections every 4 weeks?

Pareto would be rolling in his grave

GBuss i havent heard about this, we also have 2 accounts in our house.     have you posted on the forum to see if theres any help there?

rosa thats not surprising as i suspect a lot of those accounts are inactive ones who signed up used it once and couldnt be bothered again.    i have over 100 names on my list and about half of those dont use it anymore for various reasons    there are other reasons of course but I wont bore you lol
