Vodafone Sure Signal

[Porkpie]

You should improve the feedback of your form, and why is an artifical suspension been placed, because of inactivity? That makes no technical sense in the slightest. What's to stop you from removing the record, and adding as a new? or most likely, setting the boolean to false.

hi james,
the serial no is 40111015695 i know it is registered

Hi Porkpie,

When it comes to the suspension of the original Sure Signals, the reason for this could be a number of things including a security patch that was supplied.

Unfortunately once the sure signal is in this state we are unable to remove the suspension on the Sure Signal.

As this was purchased second hand and replacement would need to be obtained by the original owner.

@ tonytango, I have taken a look at this for you and can confirm that the number you have provided has now been added to the Sure Signal for you.

Alex2801,

Thanks for your post here.

I have taken a look at the Sure signal serial number for you and can see that the Sure Signal is currently showing as suspended.

Unfortunately due to this you will not be able to register the device.

As you aren’t the original owner you will need to ask them to contact us directly to arrange a replacement, who will then be able to send this over to you.

Unfortunately we are unable to remove it from this state.

Hey James,
Could you check on mine too, does this need a replacement/software update?
serial number:
21221061878

Is it possible to update its software instead of replacing the whole unit?

Thanks
Domi

Hello,

I can't register my Sure Signal. I have filled in and confirmed my postcode and proceeded to the next step - "Account Setup". I have entered my serial number of 40112034349 and I receive the following message:

"Sorry, we're having a technical problem at the moment. Please try again in a few minutes"

I have tried again in a few minutes, and now I'm 24 hours later and getting the same result. I have tried two different computers (Windows 7 Pro 32-bit and 64-bit) with Firefox 11 and IE 9 on each with no better luck. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Loz

Hey guys,

@domi007 - I've sent you a PM which can be accessed here. If you could follow the instructions in the PM and send us your details one of the team will be with you as soon as they can.

@theloz - Could you double check that serial number for me? It's showing 'invalid' in our back end tool.

Cheers,

Lee

[theloz]

Lee, what does 'invalid' mean? It's literally what It says on the sticker: http://i.imgur.com/bs7Ec.jpg

When trying to add a new user via the Sure Signal web portal I have been receiving the following error for over a month:

"Sorry we are not able to process your request because of following errors in your form.

Sorry, we're having a technical problem at the moment. Please try again in a few minutes. If you keep seeing this message, please contact us through the help centre."

Any ideas?

Hi MrDerp

Thanks for your post here.

I know this may sound basic but is the number definitely on Vodafone? Not on any MVNO network such as ASDA?

If it is definitely a Vodafone number please refer to post 1 in this thread (Can be found here) for information on how to contact us and what information we need from you.

Thanks

Wayne

If you have a spare minute could you please take the time to fill out a short feedback form about me?

You can do so here

Hey guys,

Just wondering if you could advise me a little about a Sure Signal box I've been given. (Serial No: 21223468048). I've tried registering it, but got the error message about online problems. I kept getting this over the course of a week so I tried calling the helpline. They then advised me that the Sure Signal had been suspended but couldn't give me reasons why, or what I could do to unsuspend it?

Basically, is there any way in which I can get the box working? I notice in previous posts, your admin members advise on getting the original owner to do something (but all the advice was given by pm unfortunately for me), this wouldn't be a problem so any help you can give would be appreciated!

Thanks in advance,

John.

I now have my Sure Signal ( 40110917768 ) up and working great for my number.  I'd now like to add my wife's number (ends in 9065 and is on the same account) to my sure signal but I'm getting the dreaded "Sorry, we're having a technical problem at the moment. Please try again in a few minutes. If you keep seeing this message, please contact us through the help centre." message.

What is the best way to get here number added?

[Warfrog]

Hi, having similar problems to the above user:

I have a registered Sure Signal box, myself as Admin. When I try to add my dad's number I get:

[Sorry we are not able to process your request because of following errors in your form.

• Sorry, we're having a technical problem at the moment. Please try again in a few minutes. If you keep seeing this message, please contact us through the help centre.]

Serial Number *21224469946 Status appears as Active.

Any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks

Me too! Upgraded to iPhone 4s on Wednesday. Was the registered VSS owner, couldn't get the new phone to latch onto the VSS, so deregistered and re-registered with husband as owner. Added me as user. Got SMS on my phone confirming me as user. Then got home to find neither phone worked with the VSS. Deregistered him, re-registered me as owner, got my phone back on but now can't add him and getting the dreaded technical error message. Nice lady in Egypt says she's left a message for the team that deals with it but it's Easter ...

At least we have 1 phone capable of making calls without having to walk the 2 miles to the closest point with a signal. Glad to know its not just us but it's driving us mad!!!!

VSS serial number 21197186378 for what it's worth. Don't you dare do anything that buggers up the one phone that is registered!!

Hey guys,

Thanks for your posts.

I'll answer each of you in turn.

@ jongleurs - Your device is showing as suspended and we need to replace it for you. I've sent you a PM which can be accessed here. If you could follow the instructions in the PM and send us your details one of the team will be with you as soon as they can.

@ jeffml - I've added that number for you now. It seems there's been a technical issue that's now resolved. Let me know if you need anything else.

@ Warfrog - I've also done the same for you.

@ Pineau - Likewise, the number you've been trying to add is now in the access list.

L:et me know if you need any further help guys.

Thank you for the help.  I now see her number listed (with country code 44 in front) as a user on Manage Users page but can't get her phone to pick up the VSS.  She has a SGS2 just like me and works elsewhere just fine.  I've tried the following:

- Power cycle VSS

- Reset VSS with Reset button

- Phone restarted

- Phone switched between Flight mode

- Location change on website.

- Every combination of the above I can think of

Each time my phone reconnects back to the VSS just fine but her phone struggles to find a signal.  Thanks in advance.
