Hi guys,
I need some help logging in.
This goes no longer with eBay username und passwort - so I signed up as requested. I followed the instructions and I'm pretty sure I did everything right: chose a Gixen Username, a Gixen Password, and linked my eBay account to it. I got no error messages whatsoever. But when I now try to log in with my new Gixen Username&Passwort I get the message "Please sign up first", which I repeated a couple of times as described above (without success). Logging in using the old method doesn't work either. So what did I do wrong and how can I fix it to use Gixen again?
I would appreciate your help! Many thanks in advance. |

For the next few weeks you need to log in with your new credentials at:
www.gixen.net
not here.
You also need to ensure that you push the 'Log in Now' button and not the 'Sign Up' button which is, confusingly, where you might usually expect to press. _________________ Mark

I had the same problem, I think a Gixen is finished hacked or just not working anymore no doubt ebay have decided to curtail Gixen's snipe service. I would change your password within ebay just to be safe |

Well, after I repeated the sing-up-procedure it somehow worked this time. So - thank you! |

If you'd like assistance you are more than welcome to ask for it and we'll do our best to get you up and running again... but attacks on us are not the way to go and won't get you any sympathy or help. _________________ Mark |

Actually it's quite the opposite, every single one of your unsubstantiated claims. In addition, Gixen no longer asks for or collects eBay passwords. |

|

I've tried everything suggested and cannot create a gixen account. I go to Gixen.net and there is nowhere to sign up. It just defaults to my eBay information. Same on gixen.com. So how am I supposed to use it? Can't use my ebay creds, can't create gixen creds. Frustrating!!! |

gixen.net was temporary during the transition, it redirects to gixen.com now in any case.
Are you pressing the 'Sign Up' button on the Gixen.com Home page ?
That is definitely where you need to start, you can't log in to your new Gixen account prior to doing that.
You should not try using your Ebay credentials anywhere on any Gixen related software any more and it is advised that you choose entirely different credentials from your Ebay one when setting up your Gixen account.
Once you have your Gixen account the next stage is to authorise your Ebay account to it, by following the link provided by Gixen to Ebay. _________________ Mark |

|

I've tried hopelessly for 2 days to sign up the new gixen website, but it's always a failure !
I've never received an e-mail even with different e-mail providers ( numericable.fr, free.fr, gmail.com )
I can't either log on !
What's going on ?
I use gixen for years and now i'm stucked on eBay !
It seems to be a bug, as I read on this forum, so please fix it quickly !
Thanks |

Please email the details to Mario direct at the support address given on the Contact tab above.
The details include the email addresses that you have tried to register, the Gixen ids that you have tried to register, and the Ebay id that you want to associate with your Gixen account. _________________ Mark |

I did send an e-mail with my gixen details but no way for my eBay Ids !
Hurry up and fix your website please otherwise i'm going to use another eBay sniper !
I really need one.
It would be a shame because I like this one and gixen is really efficient !
Your proposal is not a durable solution.
Nevertheless thank you.
I'm looking forward to using gixen quikly again.
Bye |

What is the problem with telling Mario what your Ebay id is ?
I wasn't suggesting that you provide any passwords via email.
It is hard to know what problem you are having if you can't be more explicit about what you are trying to do, and what precisely is not working, for you.
It must be something specific to your account, or what you are trying to do, because there are many thousands of Gixen users that are not having this issue right now. _________________ Mark

Hi Cupid.
After reading your post msg, I've tried again this morning just in case ...
I gave my gixen Ids and e-mail adress and try to link this information to eBay as suggested in the website and as I did before.
It nearly worked !
I had this error msg :
"Error -1529. Please try again from scratch. If it fails again please report to support.At.gixen.com."
So, I tried again and this time my gixen account has been created !
I don't understand what was the matter because, I did exactly the same "protocol" at the very first time I tried to subscribe.
So, it's ok then, but I have not received any confirmation e-mail from the website !
It remains something strange
Bye. |

You don't actually need an email from gixen in order to complete the set up of your Gixen account, though I agree that is an issue that needs addressing in the long term, if you subsequently need it to send you emails for some other reason.
Hopefully, you are now up and running though. _________________ Mark |
