how to PM admin??

Hi all, sorry if this is in the wrong place but i've spent ages trying already!!

basically my DOB is wrong, so i looked at FAQs and found this:

If it is not available to edit, please PM admin with your DOB to request it to be changed.

But the link takes you to a login page, where my username / password does not work.

So i am a little confused as to what do, any help is much appreciated!

PM Ian J but bear in mind he receives a LOT of PMs.

Fully accept that the OP's DoB is just wrong and he wants it changed - but I did laugh at the wording in the Control Panel:

Quote:

Please contact the Administrator if your date of birth has changed.

Do DoBs change very often!?!

Normally immediately after the member has been banned from trading for being under age.

I take it you don't have much contact with the fairer sex then

i didn't realise you had to be 18, so fair enough i was banned (despite completing 2 tradesm showing i'm capable!) then by instinct "made" myself 10 years older but i'm an idiot and this obviously didn't work. so now i can't change it back to my real date of birth, even though i'm now actually 18!

It isn't a matter of "capability" but of law as anyone under the age of 18 is considered a minor and isn't legally responsible for their debts.

Anyway I have changed your DOB.

For the benefit of other readers I often get PMs from people saying that they made a mistake on their DOB when entering it originally and asking me to adjust it. When I reply that I will happily change it once they send me some ID I tend never to hear from them again.
