Duplicate Mails

FurbtasticM · 21-10-10, 08:49 PM

This has happened to people in the past, just noticed that I have several blocks of 4 or 5 refs under the same mail address, all signed up within seconds of each other. A FJ glitch?

I've had duplicate email addresses before, who signed up at exactly the same time but FJ know about the glitch and say that the person can only access one account.

I've had this before when 1 account did an offer, it stayed green.

Great question. I have a green referral and was wondering the same thing. The time is literally only a few seconds apart.

I had one, all with the same time stamp but got "This user is on hold" so i woudn't hold your breath.

Where the email addresses are identical the signup form has submitted twice. I can't fix it because I can't replicate the problem (when I try it says user already registered)

We don't put accounts on hold for this

Just wanted to add that if I come across these duplicate accounts where the email address is exactly the same, I will automatically remove the dormant account(s) and the active account will still count as a valid referral.

We don't need to be contacted by you or by the referral for this to happen, but if you think one has been placed on hold in error please get in touch and let us know the account IDs so we can check it.
