    I signed up yesterday 4th of nov 2020 and confirmed my account details and I was accepted
    but when I tried to sign in my email address was not on the system , it also appeared that my username was also missing.
    I am not a robot Im a genuine person with a philipeno partner .
    I have since signed up again using another email address in the hope that it will be accepted so that I can access the website,
    failing that I shall give up . why does this site register on computers as insecure and why does google reject it as an insecure site?
    I genuinely need help and advice getting my partner to the UK after the covid 19 crisis is over we love each other very much but we need help and
    advice from brilliant websites like this .

    regards Omega 1965.

    Hi were you Deep Blue, if you were I accept we made a mistake, there was a change of email address and we were suspicious and deleted the account.

    I validated your new account this evening.

    What I mean is that it appeared that you registered with one email address and then changed it to another address and that is what triggered our action yesterday.

    errm no I was "oojimmyflip"ive signed up this time as "Omega1965" it seems at least I can post now, even if I am a little out of my depth.
    thank you for answering Somewhere it is appreciated, there is currently at lot of emotion in our separation at present over covid 19 and other issues
    in our relation hip which seems to be making life a little difficult for us and that is why I'm here .
    thanks again.

    Using Hotmail to sign up to the forum is now banned for new users.

    Right now, the @Hotmail.com domain is being used by spammers to sign up to the forum in big numbers. If you are an existing member with a Hotmail email address, you are not affected, you'll still get email from the forum and able to log in as usual. Going forward any new sign-ups with a Hotmail email will need to use an alternative. Microsoft allow users of their free email product to set up aliases using the @outlook.com and @live.com.

    Many email 'experts' will tell you never to give out your real main email address. Why?
