    Has anyone here ever successfully registered with adwhirl?

    If you have successfully registered for adwhirl, what email domain did you use (e.g. hotmail, yahoo, aol, etc) ?

    There is some epic failure right now where nobody can sign up with adwhirl because the activation email never arrives:



    So I'm wondering if maybe you need a certain email address domain for it to work or something.

    Please advise if you received the activation email and if so, what email domain you used

    Other question to vbulletin:

    If adwhirl doesn't fix this problem, is there an alternative solution for displaying ads? I really think we need a backup option since it appears adwhirl is not a very dependable service. I realize that its not vbulletin's "fault" if adwhirl doesn't work, but there really needs to be a backup option for displaying simple text ads that works every time.

    I'll give the service a whirl again later, no pun intended, but as of now this has been an epic failure thanks to them. I will not be using this product unless I can get ads to work with it

    so how do i show simple google ads without adwhirl? i have no use for the product unless i can show ads

      what date did it work for you?

      i'm 0/4 in receiving the activation email. i just tried gmail. didn't work. not in spam folder

      hushmail, yahoo, gmail, and AOL all don't work

      vbulletin, we need a new alternative to adwhirl for vbulletin mobile suite. this product is not usable for me unless i can get ads to work in it

      adwhirl, this is not acceptable to have such a simple feature not work. this is embarrassing i'm sorry

            can u make me an @steveLV702.com account to test lol?

            im really losing my patience here with adwhirl.


            just tested a FIFTH time this time using @bigstring.com email address

            sure enough, doesn't even work

            0/5 on the simplest thing as having an email sent. embarrassing.

            *edit*

            0/6

            @37.com email registration fails.

            this is unreal. we need a new solution for ads here vbulletin



            just for the heck of it i tried doing forgot password request, and not suprisingly a company that can't even get an email to send has a broken forgot password feature:

            Caught Exception: Attribute.Value missing for Attribute.Name='uid'
            Response Status Code: 400
            Error Code: MissingParameter
            Error Type: Unknown
            Request ID: 7ab80e46-e68f-c40b-a39a-d75e4e2f9925
            XML: MissingParameterAttribute.Value missing for Attribute.Name='uid'0.00002199077ab80e46-e68f-c40b-a39a-d75e4e2f9925

            lets move away from this adwhirl. as a customer, should i have any faith whatsoever in this?

              the adwhirl situation completely ruined my plans to get work done on the vbulletin mobile project for the weekend. total screw up here. this needs to be fixed. i even asked some of my friends to try making accounts and it failed for them too. this is just not acceptable and i have zero faith in their company at this point.

              i just find it mind-boggling that a programming 101 problem of sending emails is holding them back.

                I had the same adwhirl email issue in march when I registered with them. I had to try 2 different email registration to finally get their mail.
                So far useless to me as I don't own a mac and then can't purchase two mobile apps..
