Intersango.com seems to have updated their website in the last 24 hours. Unofrtunately they seem to have removed the ability to login with openid or google account.

Just this monday decided to try their service and deposited some euros... Now I can't access them. Not a good start.

Intersango folks, any comment?

Hi,

there's a migration service which is explained if you sign up for an account (in the email you receive). For those who are having problems we are answering support emails. It will not be a problem and the new software is a culmination of 3 month's worth of work. We will be making a detailed announcement later

Thanks, will try the migration.

For next time you could consider posting the announcement _before_ cutting service.

For the information of anyone else using a Google account: The migration page has a single text entry labeled "openid". You need to write "https://www.google.com/accounts/o8/id" in it (do not replace id with your account name, that really is the correct url).

I have accounts with intersango.eu, intersango.us and britcoin.co.uk

Will all of my accounts be consolidated

When/How will this happen?

having the same problem can't login with openid at the new site when is the migration page going to be up?

I've had the same problem. I think if Intersango change the login system, they should also add an explanation for users who registered with the previous Myopenid-based system. Now I find that I sent some money to a bank account in Poland, and I can't even access my account. Not good.

Any word on this? Like to buy some bitcoins!

site is working normally for me...I can login with my openid

Hi Olly,

so how do I ? I don't see the option.

I did the migration too, but i dont have the money of my last wire transfert on it.

They have the money since the 30 august but they cant find the time to credit it to my account, despite the fact they said it will be done the 31 august.....

Now they are just saying me (ndlr yesterday) that "Please be patient, we will get to your ticket.".....

So like i need to make a transaction quiclky i had to register to Mtgox and make a wire transfer there,since i have no clue when Intersango will fix my problem..... im sure i will have my money on MtGox before i have mine on my intersango .

A bit pissed off. >:(

I assume you are talking about britcoin.co.uk? intersango.com (the topic of this thread) has not accepted openid since wednesday as far as I can tell.

On a more positive note, the SEPA deposit I did to my Google-login account did indeed arrive in my current account after the migration, that was nice. Lack of communication before a big change like this still left me with a bad taste though.

This whole thread is about intersango - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=40934.0

anyone?

All accounts will be consolidated.  For now britcoin.co.uk will remain on it's own.

You register one account and them migrate the old account.

If you're using google for openid you'll need to access the migration page from each of the domain names as they use teh domain you came from to determine the openid they give us.

Hi where does a person get that information if they can't log in?

Thanks

Have you registered a new account?

So register as in registered at  the new site ?

Yes the process is such that you register at the new site and then migrate your account.

Got it - thanks I'll do that !

1 register new account.
2 activate new account via activation email.
3 login to site.
4 stay logged in and go back to activation email for link to reclaim openid account.

once logged in all intersango accounts are available on the domain from which you reclaimed your account.

hmmmm I did that and tried to login with my gmail account at the openid and I get:

ERROR: NO SERVERS FOUND!
Unfortunately the page you requested was not available.
This might be because:
You may have typed the web address incorrectly. Please check the address and spelling ensuring that it does not contain spaces.
It is possible that the page you were looking for may have been moved, updated or deleted.

For google you need to use the google openid link https://www.google.com/accounts/o8/id

Have you guys managed to sort out that problem you seemed to be having? I saw that thread and it made me concerned with your ability to successfully operate a business. Just a quick tip from someone who dabbles: You should really try to ensure that your code works on something other than your production servers before implementing it in the wild.

Regardless, I would honestly have problems trusting you after that particular mistake on our exchange. Not only did you display a complete inability to code effectively and exceptionally shoddy quality control, you immediately  called the authorities, the exact people we don't want here, when you realized that you had made a mistake.

I think anyone reading this should have a look for themselves and make a determination. There is a reason that the free market will ensure that such inept organizations as yours fail here.

Ok, I'll try that!

This worked, thanks! It wasn't obvious to me that I needed to register from scratch again.

Sorry how do you get that google ID ? this  "For google you need to use the google openid link https://www.google.com/accounts/o8/id"

That is googles generic openid link, it redirects to a per user openid link.

When I click this, it justs downloads a random small ID file.. what am I supposed to do with this and Britcoin?
EDIT: so I just copy/paste this URL instead of click on it, i seeeeeeeeee
