British Gas Website

The British Gas Website sucks.

I registered, they sent me an email with a link to validate my email address.
I click the link, enter my password and it says “Congratulations! Your registration with britishgas.co.uk is complete. You can now manage your account, enter meter reads, view and pay bills online.”

but when I login it says “Your email address has not been validated.” and then sends me another email with a link to validate my email address.

I’m stuck in an infinite loop, so what do I do?
Use the contact form to tell them?

Well I filled it in, but when I press submit it says “A System Error has occured. Please try again.”
Another infinite loop!

I’ll say it again, the British Gas Website sucks.

Oh, and they can’t even spell “occurred”.

Update:
The contact form does actually work, it just always reports an error.
It sends me a copy of the email it sends, and that does not contain my comments.
They do seem to have got my comments though, as I’ve since had an emailed reply and a telephone call!

I can now log in!

    The bigger the company, the worse the customer service.

    What is with peoples contact forms not working! Do they not bother testing them?

    I only ever seem to get errors or mail bounces :(

    Haha, anyone else notice that the photoshopped mouse in the flash intro appears to actually be a portable laptop mouse that was enlarged, and quite poorly at that? XD

    Excuse me, perhaps it’s not the correct place to ask you this but I’ve got a problem running DSlinux, i’ve got a r4 and I patched the game file so when i run it dslinux works, but, i can’t use the programs which are in the “linux” directory, and the last three rows after the boot are these [maybe this means something]:

    mount: Mounting none on var/run failed: Unknown error 2
    /etc/rc.common: cannot open

    I hope you can help me

    and thanx a lot for listening my problem
