Sorry, it is saying that me seed exchange web password is not valid. I assume I have to fill in this password in the order or pay folder to register.

Joost, I will email you. Sorry - I thought you wanted to know where to find your number and the password.  If you have these, you will find the link to the page you need from the main SRGC seed exchange page - all the information is there, I promise!  http://www.srgc.net/site/index.php/extensions/seed-exchange

I managed to place my order, thanks everyone.

[Maggi Young]

Great news, Robert!  So pleased you discovered what the problem was at your end.


The system is working well  and orders are steadily being received by the Seed Team - as ever, most "difficulties"  being  reported are the result of  members' email providers grabbing the activation mails into a spam filter ( which is what happened to me!) or,as in the case on hotmail live.com etc, just not delivering the emails at all. Other probs are caused by trying to log in  without registering and activating a new seed account.

As we always says -  please read the notes - they are there to help !

Hi John,
The log in for the Seed Ex ordering system is separate from that you use to log in to the Forum and you will need to register first.Main seed notes page is http://www.srgc.net/site/index.php/extensions/seed-exchange       From the Seed Ex page:http://www.seedexchange.org.uk/index.php?page=home&func=noneselect the "Order or Pay.." option at the top of the page. Enter  enter the web  password ( printed in the seed list, July Secretary's Pages or online profile for e-members_ in the LOWEST box - a new page will open - you will then go on to register your details.  You can create your own password when you enter your registration details on that page,  and click 'Register' -  An activation email will be sent to you - THEN you will be able to log in from the  Order  page with your  membership number and the password (the one you have chosen in the previous step)  to make your seed order.  I've just done it myself and if you read the instructions carefully they'll keep you right.

Thanks Matt, I've edited your note a bit .... !

The main point to remember is that EVERYONE must register and activate their seed account EACH YEAR , whether to pay online for a postal seed order or to order and  pay for an order online.

There are helpful notes before you begin the process, if you are unsure - and at each stage of the process there are notes and hints to help. Of course, these only work  if members actually read them and follow the tips!!

[Maggi Young]

For members who have received (or are about to receive !) a paper copy of the seedlist, your membership number is shown on the  address label of the  plastic envelope in which  the list arrives.

I am happy for not to be alone accessing seed ordering page.  Now I am in the page to choose..
I tried so many times by '' copy-paste'' way to log in to but failed. The last trying was writing one by one..
CORRECTING...WAITING  REGISTRATION  ACTIVATING..

A friend of mine is having trouble with Sage Pay.  It gives an error with no explanation.  How can he pay?
Thanks!
...Claire

[Maggi Young]

We find that errors with Sagepay result from  minor errors made in  entering the numbers, either the main card number or the  3 digit code on the reverse of the card. Sagepay is  very strict on everything being entered correctly.  We have yet to have anyone fail completely with it.  Please advise your friend to try again - and be careful that all details are entered correctly and  that  name and address details for the card match the address given etc. Selecting correct card type  is also a simple mistake.

[Maggi Young]

Ian reminds me  that a common error is entering the long card number including the  spaces seen on the card - the digits should be run together with no gaps.

[Claire Cockcroft]

Thanks, Maggi,
Unfortunately, he doesn't even get to that point.  This is the error message:  5080: Form transaction registration failed.
