Shout Box Issues

Hello all
As you may have noticed the 'Shout Box' has disappeared !! This has been caused by the provider ending their services. See note below:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Announcement

We were experiencing severe server issues today that resulted in disruption of our services. We eventually overcome those issues and restored most of our data and accounts from daily backups. We are sorry for inconvenience.

We would like to announce that we are going to end our service within next few weeks. We will no longer accept new accounts or new account extensions and will try to provide support for existing accounts for some time while we ask you to search for alternative solution.

Thank you for being with us for so long. We really appreciate that.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Unfortunately, they have closed our 'FREE' account and I can not get the code we need to make the 'Shout Box' work.

I will over the next few days look for a suitable alternative but we might need to pay for such a service in the future.

  2. Hi Paul, It cannot be helped - this often happens with free services. I'm sure the club would pay if we had to for another similar service.....
