John-r Posted October 24, 2023 Posted October 24, 2023 Hi All, Anyone else having difficulties logging in to the Accurascale website. I have been unable to do so the last few days, I can access the trade page and the eu page but not the UK page, any help appreciated. Regards John. Quote

Have you tried clicking the "forgot password" option? That will indicate whether you have an account or not. I have two Accurascale accounts, one from the old .eu platform and one for the newer .co.uk platform. If you haven't set up a second Accurascale account, you can't access the newer .co.uk platform. 1 Quote

Accurascale have temporarily stopped posting here since the Royal Mail cyber attack, so I can't buy from them directly. It's only temporary, not permanent, so I'll be able to buy from them again in the future. 1 Quote

Perhaps address pal would be an option. So my AS orders may not arrive until RM sorted out, unless IRM/AS ship Irish orders from Dublin. Quote

Anything that I ordered before the cyber attack shipped from Dublin, the 37 being pretty recent, no problems at all. One or two went back and forth a few times due to missing CN23's but they still got here in the end. It's just the newer AS stuff tends not to be listed on the IRM site, only on the AS site. Just to be transparent, we've been in touch several times since the attack, and the lads are working on making Royal Mail services available again. Probably no impact on Ireland as there are lots of Anglo-Irish shipping options, but it's different down here. Unique situation I guess. Quote
Broithe Posted October 26, 2023 Posted October 26, 2023 I've been back on the Big Island for a few weeks and have been collecting "bits for things", mostly from eBay and via various delivery agents, including Royal Mail. Mostly, but not exclusivelly, small stuff. It has, however, been very noticeable just how quick* and efficient all of the various deliverers have been, compared to the chaotic lottery that used to go on. * Even during the recent flooding events, when I was essentially living on a very Small Island for five days. 1 Quote

Can you clarify the approx sq km of the big island and the very small island, please? Relative to 2000 sq km and a population of just under a million, in the middle of nowhere. 1 Quote

Relative to 2000 sq km and a population of just under a million, in the middle of nowhere. Big Island = 209,000 km² and about 65,000,000 people. The Small Island that I was basically marooned on for five days is about 3 km² and around a thousand people. Getting into the local metropolis from here involved a voyage through the lake by the fuel station - it's only been happening for fifty years now, so people are still getting used to it. 2 Quote

So I assume after fifty years, everybody has a boat stored, ready to go. 1 Quote
