I do not see that as a problem.
The only way that you can order is to click "yes"

It seems to be something recent. I just clicked yes and had no problem.

sorry for getting back sooner but had to get some sleep. I clicked on the button that says "forget your password " and am still waiting for a reply that was 48 hours ago and still nothing it seems to me that they are ignoring me and yet i have bought about 10./15 certs from them since i started this hobby last year.

Forgetting your password is a different issue from clicking on the View Webpage content. If you got to the stage of entering your password you presumably clicking Yes on the Viewing Webpage screen.. A forgotten password should be emailed to you within minutes.

Try it again, write down what you did, and come back to us with the results.

Hi madmeg, went onto their website clicked onto the Register/Login screen, then the security message came up, clicked on the yes and it comes up with the Register/login in page, then realised that i had forgot my password, so clicked on "forgotten your password, typed in my email address and then it said please allow upto an hour for a reply, and four days later i am still waiting for a reply with my new password. angela

Hi loopyloo
Tried again yesterday and again today, as i have a second email address i decided to set up a new account to get round the problem, am thinking about giving them a ring to find what is going on. I suggest if you don't have a second email then get one on hotmail at least i am not the only one having this problem now i have to wait even longer for my important birth cert to arrive as only sent off for it this morning after waiting a week for them to pm me with a new password. angela

What's happening with all these sites? i know this has nothing to do with Genes, but I have been trying to book a flight with Bmibaby for the last month and just can't get on to the site, now my daughter has tried and she can't either (even though she is much more IT experienced than I am). My son in England reckons their technicians don't know what they are doing! Pauline
