Published in Insurance Age: Software House Retrospective Review of 2010

Update from Jon Mitchell:

 

He advises this is a common gripe but Towergate are insistent this is correct under the current FSA regulations.

 

I'm going to respond to this but before I do can you let me know if this happens on all Towergate products or just certain ones?

 

The FSA thing isn't the main point for me. Surely they should be doing all they can to support Brokers and making selling their products as easy as possible.

 

I got some interesting chat on changing documentation on PowerPlace when I was in London the other week but it's not for the public forum.

Awwwwwwww - tease! (not that it affects me directly hehe!)

Daylight Savings?

If your on-line time is incorrect, check out the settings in your profile and click the "Auto DST" option here

I have my view on "Outline" and can still see the "Watch Topic" button. Are you already "watching" those Topic areas ?

Did You Know? - You can change the way each post is displayed when you are viewing a Topic

Go to Profile Settings and then to the Forums Tab and change the "Topic Display Mode" option

Have a play and see which option you prefer!

(The "Outline" display is ace - IMHO)

Yayyyyyyyyyyyy

Updated the list of valid file types and tried - STILL BROKEN!

Then found another list - specifically for the Downloads section and added them again - NOW WORKS!

Enjoy

Mmmmmm - me too re Excel

Possibly a setting buried somewhere - I'll have a look and let you know

Oh - and I've followed my own advice and marked this as a "watched" Forum so I get notifications when something gets posted - I feel a host of questions coming in soon ....

I think it's an ambiguous error message - one that i keep getting 'cus I dont do it right (either!)

Once you have "Browsed" for the file, you have to use the "Attach" button. It should then appear in the window above. Then fill in the details for submission, then hit the "Add Submission" button.

All should then be OK.

NB - Doesn't like .docx files at the minute - but maybe a set-up thing

Good luck!

Did You Know ----

You can "Watch" a Forum using the "Watch Forum" button (normally at the head of the entry). This will add it to your start screen when you sign in. Do it for the "Start Here" Forum and never miss a new entry! Go on - Do it now!

Topics in a Forum can also be watch individually and allows you to customise your updates.

I'd score this tip 10/10 - but I would - wouldn't I - what say you?
