I recently became a member of freecycle.org. I seemed to be locked out of login on. It worked previously?

Question

I spoke with SBC tech support and there was an issue with the incoming port so we fixed that. I have rechecked everything following the help guidelines so I dont now i am stumped. Not 5 minutes later I had the same problem. I cannot log on to freecycle. Any suggestions. seems Im blocked somewhere. I am not showing up in the freecycle database. yet I know the info I am imputting is correct.

Answer 1

freecycle.org is the information site, not anything you can log onto.

Individual groups are hosted by Yahoo. To log on, you need a Yahoo account, with ID and password. They have links to retrieve these if you forgot them.

If you are not showing up in the member database, then you are not a member. (Exception: New members sometimes take a day or so to show up). Perhaps while you were having computer problems, your email account started bouncing and got deleted.

To get your status checked, go to the home page of your local group. At the bottom is a -owner email. You can use that to send the moderators a note, asking for help.
