A useful thread - I had a bit of trouble logging in, it was sorted, but if that had happened during voting time then

Thanks very much for the reminder. I have found I am OK, but I would have been very cross if I couldn't have voted because of the changes.

If you plan on voting online on Saturday do check your BBC ID - they have changed things.

Make sure you can sign in OK.

If you haven't used the site recently you'll get asked for extra info. Which isn't something you want to be faced with when trying to vote quickly!
Thanks I had to faff about as well and it would have been frustrating at voting time..... all done now.....

I am hopeful that this is the first step to ensure that people are licence holders before using the site.

So do you think we in Ireland shouldn't be able to access it .? I pay via Virgin Media to watch Strictly on BBC.
People in Holland enjoy Strictly too and we enjoy reading the site and enjoy learning about the couples ? Why shouldn't we enjoy that ?

Did my account, but when it came to voting everytime I clicked on vote nothing happened. Last year it always said vote accepted. Not happy if I missed it.

I'm afraid I don't think your votes would have counted. The same happened to me at first. You need to check your emails for one from the BBC and then click on the button to verify your email address. After I did this my votes were registered.

Thanks for the help. It did say when I updated that my account was verified and I was able to vote. Perhaps not in those exact words but it did show I should be able to vote. But I will check it out again. I lost it completely tonight as I felt it was an important night to vote. Very moody afterwards
Thanks again for the help, I hope I have better luck next week.
