Send validation request a few times now. Valdation code not being sent. Checked my email address, looks ok. Had the same problem before when I tried to join earlier....HELP jonno12 Quote Link to comment

Love Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 You can have another validation code sent to you from this page... http://www.geocaching.com/v/ If that doesn't work for you, send an email to contact@geocaching.com. Quote Link to comment
+Shilo Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 I got it. I just hit the button several times and it took finally. Quote Link to comment
+Oxymoron Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 I got it. I just hit the button several times and it took finally. I too cannot log visits now due to my account not being validated. I haven't received any emails either despite requesting them many times. I also dropped a note to the above email address and still no reply or any means, it seems of resolving this. Someone must have a solution somewhere. Quote Link to comment
+Annie & PB Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 I'm very sure that Groundspeak will have answered your email. It could be possible that your internet provider is filtering for 'spam' at their end and emails are not even getting through at all from Groundspeak. Annie Quote Link to comment
+Oxymoron Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Well the spam filter (at their end) is turned off at the moment. My ISP may have added it to their banned list if they were receiving too much mail from geocaching.com I guess. I have raised a query with them. Quote Link to comment

Someone must have a solution somewhere. Try another e-mail account just to see what happens. Gmail is a good choice, as I know it doesn't have a problem with mail from here. If that account gets the e-mail then the problem is with your ISP. Quote Link to comment

If that account gets the e-mail then the problem is with your ISP. Gmail is a very good choice. I use my gmail account as my geocaching email address and have my Blackberry set up to read that account. Whenever I post a log on one of my own caches it doesn't take more than 5-10 seconds for the alarm to go off on my Blackberry indicating that I got a new email message. I think I have over 90 gmail invitations availalbe if anybody wants one. Quote Link to comment
+Renegade Knight Posted July 3, 2008 Share Posted July 3, 2008 ...I need to validate... Ok, I'm only going to do this once. You are a nice person and darn it, people like you! Quote Link to comment
