We’ve created this thread to help with online problems that may occur when registering, or managing your Sure Signal.

 

You need an online account so you can register and manage your Sure Signal.

 

You’ll receive a text as part of the registration process, which contains a security code. This code is only valid for 20 minutes.

 

We understand that if you own a Sure Signal, you’ll most likely have little or no coverage, so we recommend you register online when you know you’ll be able to receive the text.


Business customers:

If you’re a business customer you can’t register this via My Account and you need to visit Sure Signal for business. Just click ‘Register a Sure Signal’ and enter your company name as the owner and your mobile number as the administrator - this way you can still make any changes needed.


Consumer customers:

You’ll receive a text or email to confirm that the Sure Signal is fully registered.


Please note that problems can occur, if the number that’s registered as the Owner of the Sure Signal, is different than the main number registered for online billing.


Check for planned maintenance:

Check the forum for any planned maintenance. If there is, this will be announced at the top of the Sure Signal forum.

 

Planned maintenance can involve changes to the registration system, so wait for this to complete and then retry.


Pending active:

If your online account shows the Sure Signal as ‘Pending Active’, then post in this thread and we’ll look into it further.


All other issues:

If you have any other problems with your Sure Signal registration or management, just post the details below. We’ll need the following:

 

  • Exact error message
  • Step by step instructions for how to recreate the issue
  • Operating system
  • Browser and browser version

Thanks, 

Jenny

Ah, thanks to the You Tube video I may have solved this now. :smileylol:

 

I was ticking the "accept terms and conditions" box without actually reading them - when I opened them up and read them first it let me register.

 

Could be a coincidence, but if it is this, it would be helpful to get an error message on teh webform rather than a page full of code! 

Hi aslord99,

 

Thanks for the update here I’m pleased to see that you have managed to get everything up and running.

I've the same problem, but where last night I was seeing the code that others posted above, now I'm seeing a message saying there are technical problems. I've tried on two different PC's and 3 different browsers, nothing working.

 

I bought a new phone last week, and had to transfer my number from a regular SIM to a micro SIM for it, and since then I haven't been able to pick up sure signal. I read that you need to delete and readd the number, but at the moment I can't do anything. I have zero signal on my phone without this, so if I can't get a solution soon, I need to move to a different network. That's not a threat, it's basic common sense.

 

Sure signal is 21229342361

Tech team,

 

It appears your sure signal web setup tool is broken (again).  When trying to add users I either 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."

Or a stream of debug data.  I have tried this on Safari on a Mac and IE on a Windows PC.  Both fail.

 

I am concerned there are 19 pages of problems with this service.  Is it always this unreliable?

 

I had thought it has started to work, but no.  Now when I add a number to the table of users and click confirm I get the following.  It is very surprising that a firm the size of Vodafone has such a flaky web service.

make sure you put the number in the international format

ie +447*********

Steven,

 

Thanks.  I tried that. No luck I am afraid. Got the error message that the number needs to be an eleven digit number starting with 07

 

Looking back up the thread, it seems my problem is quite common, followed by a 'its fixed' from the tech team.  Guess the fix isn't that permanent.

 

I will have to wait for Monday and their help line to open. Pretty poor that it isn't 24x7.

Hi Guys,

 

Thanks for you posts here, please find your responses below;

 

@ Scuba51, I have taken a look at this for you and I am also getting an error when trying to add the number that failed for you.

 

Can I ask if the Micro SIM has fully activated and you are able to use the SIM in the phone whilst out and about in an area where you can get signal?

 

@ stevenlevy, I have taken a look at your Sure Signal for you and can see that it is showing as registered however it hasn’t connected to the server since 16/10/2011.

 

Can I ask what light sequence you are seeing on the Sure Signal?

 

If you are having trouble using the Sure Signal, I would take a look at the troubleshooting steps first and then let us know if you require any further assistance.

 

@ andy8421, over the past couple of days there have been instances where the online portal has not been working and we are looking into this for all of our users as it should now be resolved.

 

In regards to 19 pages of threads in the Sure Signal forum, these are for a number of different issues including a lot of setup problems due to the routers that are being used and different ISP’s changing settings or IP ranges without informing us or their customers.

 

If you are having any issues please let me know what you are trying to do and also your Sure Signal serial number so that we can take a look at this for you.

 

In regards to the support, the eForum is always active and never shuts down however we do work on a first come first serve basis on all threads posted so it can sometimes take 24 hours for us to respond as we are a very little team under high demand.

 

James
