In the last week I have twice tried to register with Swift Talk and I still have yet to receive a log in confirmation email. Does it still operate? I cannot find any link to Swift  that would enable me to ask the question directly!

    Just logged in with no problems. Perhaps contact the Customer Service Team as they seem to be the people that supply most of the answers.

    ive used it recently....seems to be up as usual...

    check your spam email box or that you typed the correct address....

    you could just try again prior to getting cust services involved....might work.

    I too can get straight into SwiftTalk.

    Have you been 'banned' in the past, perhaps.  Just a thought as some forums recognise your IP Address and don't allow future registrations from that address.

    (in my opinion) honest post however given I must be on about 8/9 forums I have never been banneD from any.......yet!

    Six new members joined yesterday so the site seems to be working OK. Worth trying again.

    Just out of interest has it been a while since you last logged on? Quite some time ago they seem to have made some changes to the website and it took me a while to get back in as it would not accept my old password. I don't go there as often now as I no
    longer own a Swift product.

    Do you have an 'odd' email address?  I know some forums have difficulty with anything other than a 'standard', ie hotmail, gmail, btnet, etc.  My brother has an 'invented' email address - something like roger@dodger.uk or dennis@menace.com and he has problems
    sometimes.

    Straight forward yahoo email. I joined at the weekend principally hoping to source info on dealer specials or location of 2015 spec vans.

    david, i think you have cracked it....

    i hadnt ised it for ages and when trying it, got a message that for every first use after last sept (i think) when the new site was launched, all isers had to re-register and got taken to a special log in page...

    once completed (a bit of a palaver waiting for email etc...) use was restored...

    Aaaaaggghh! For the avoidance of doubt I tried to register for the first time at the weekend, it all goes well, I get a message saying they are sending a verification email.....and nothing. It is now 3 days since I tried twice on the space of 24 hours. I
    have never used Swift talk before and at this rate never will........ Surely there is someone from Swift around here who can help?! I want to buy another Swift group van so come on, get your act together!

    Flatcoat

    The people that administer the Swift Forum I suspect are far too busy to look in on Club Together on a regular basis if at all. May I suggest that you try this email aspacey@swiftleisure.co.uk and see if Andy
    can help you.

    Thanks David. My experience of car forums I am active with is such the manufacturers usually closely monitor discussions to pick up on potential issues.

    Swift do monitor swift-talk very closely.....nothing like the nands off approach of CT.....

    this really sounds like the email is disappearing into some spam or junk box.....

    do you have a second email address like gmail etc? try that if you have....

    Working here too, OH is a member so she logged in to try it.

    She saw you had joined HD.

    She hasn't used it much lately as she does not like the new forum so much.
