Login Problems
I am having trouble logging in.
If you have already joined, logging into your Bidnapper account
should be simple. If you are having problems, there are few things to
check.
Your Bidnapper login does not have
to match the login you use on any auction site. It can be unique,
but it can be the same as what you use at eBay, for example,
if you want.
-
The login fields are in the upper
right corner of the home page and are what you use to log into your
Bidnapper account. If they are not there, you may already be logged
in.
Do not try to login in the JOIN
form. You will get an error message saying you have already joined.
Make sure cookies are
enabled in your browser's Internet preferences. For instructions on
how to check that the cookies are enabled on your browser, go to our
Trouble Shooting section on COMPUTER
SETTINGS.
Some users have personal firewalls
installed on their computers. Some personal firewalls have a
password protection function that prevents passwords from being sent
to another site. You will need to disable this temporarily, or
exempt Bidnapper.
Be sure you are not adding any
extra blank spaces either before or after your username or password.
If you are copying and pasting, be sure not to include any blank
extra spaces.
If your browser is filling in the
login automatically, be sure it has the correct login minus any
extra blank spaces.
Use the FORGOT LOGIN link
in the top right corner of the site to have Bidnapper send your
login to the address we have on your account. Use it to verify you
are entering the correct login.
Be sure your caps lock is off.
I have forgotten my login.
If you have forgotten your login, click the down arrow next to the
login fields in the upper right corner of the home page and use the
FORGOT LOGIN link to have your login sent to the email
address we have on your account.
I want to change my Bidnapper login; either my
username or password. How do I do that?
Log into your Bidnapper account, then go to MY ACCOUNT>MANAGE
LOGINS.
The
MANAGE LOGINS page is where you can manage the logins for all the
auction sites you use on Bidnapper, and your Bidnapper login. Click
the Bidnapper Logins button, then EDIT LOGIN button next to
your Bidnapper login. Enter the new username and/or password (twice),
then click the UPDATE INFO button. If you are using the
HomeLink tool for any auction sites, be sure to update your Bidnapper
login on the HomeLink tool. RIGHT click on the HomeLink icon in the
tooltray of your screen, go to OPTIONS and update your
Bidnapper login there.
