    @SoPo88 That's very strange, as there should be no issues with logging in. Are you able to try this on another device? - giffgaff Jade

    @SoPo88 That's odd, Sophie. Please can you clear your cache, cookies and web history then try this again. Please also try using a different browser or device, as this should help - giffgaff Jade
