My webspace via FTP, keeps coming back that my user name or password is incorrect, could someone check it is activated please?
Have two PC's running diferent software - usually use smartftp.
just using my user name 'graemsay' and normal password.
My account was activated 24/12/07 and everything else is great.

Have you changed your (Password)? if yes try your old one.
Make shoure that you tipe your Password & Username in the same Case, so for example if your Username was:
ben & you put Ben then it will fail.

Hi Gary
Thanks for the tips as one can easily overlook something but I haven't changed anything and everything is in lower case. I am fairly sure that it just hasn't been activated as yet.
It must be a very busy period for the support staff so I am quite content to wait a while.
Thanks - Mick

Your Account  should be up and running, rays a ticket with Technical Support, if you can not get in to PlusNet's portal send me an PM and I will send you PlusNet's Phone Number.

Hi Gary
Thanks for the advice and raised a note with support which only took 30 minutes to get a reply and it should be up and running in about 4 hours. Very fast indeed.
The last time I raised an issue with my previous adsl&phone supplier (Virgin) it cost me over £4 in phone calls to tell them their cps had failed and I was having to route my calls through BT. After a week with no action of any kind I managed to get BT to sort it out for me.
What a difference in support and real glad I migrated.
