Registering

If you are having problems with your registration, here are a few pointers:

• All the starred fields are required.
• Your username uniquely identifies your Gig-o-matic account. There are no restrictions on the usable characters.
• Your email address must also be unique in the system, since this address will be used by Gig-o-matic for future correspondence.
• There are no restrictions on characters for your password. However it is recommended you choose a password that will be hard to guess, such as a memorable combination of characters that is not a real word.
• If supplied, postcodes must conform to the UK Government standards.
  If you are a UK resident, it is recommended that you supply a postcode, as it is used for some of the additional features of Gig-o-matic.
