Hi Nancy

 

Thankyou I have found some emails buried  in Mac computer- for some reason they only appear in conversation history and don't actually appear as emails so i had missed them. I have replied in full no although it looks like they could have closed my case. When I click on the ticket link it doesn't work. Are you able to check please?

    I just checked, and it shows that your case remains open Lettuce1.

     

    As a matter of fact, there was a response from you earlier today, is that correct?

    Yes that's right. ok many thanks. I have discovered someone must have hacked my email account and added a rule that any email containing the word 'drop' be marked as read and moved to a 'conversation' folder hence I haven't been receiving any updates

    Hi Megan

    Having finally got my account back for a couple of days it has happened again! I can’t log on as it doesn’t now recognise my password. Can you help me get a ticket again as I’m unable to get one without logging in again
