pete 319 Posted December 7, 2022 My "Bad Request" issue lies with my new Chrapbook laptop.Ā Not only does it gives the notice when logging on to the Pink Un, it stops me accessing my Virgin media Inbox and reading my e mails.Ā I am posting this on my aged HP Notebook.Ā However I would like to hear from anyone who has similar issues with Chromebook.Ā Maybe only my problem.Ā Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kirku 1,334 Posted December 8, 2022 Yeah, I've had similar problems. It only works on 1/2 laptops and not at all on my phone (unless I open up an incognito tab). It's a pain in the **** and has definitely reduced my usage over the last few weeks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KiwiScot 1,450 Posted December 8, 2022 I had an issue last month where I was unable to get any help/find a responsive mods and can't be bothered trying again. I'd attatched a pdf to my competition thread, but you were not able to download it and trying to click on it threw up an error page. I noticed this with images you'd upload as well. Not had any bad service requests. I access through bookmarks, history on 2 devices. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hogesar 9,685 Posted December 8, 2022 Frustrating but considering how easy a permanent fix is, it's somewhat clear whoever is in charge has zero care factor about this forum. May be worth starting to look elsewhere... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Google Bot 3,278 Posted December 8, 2022 I don't get any issues, but I rarely read the pinkun main site - so it has to be related.
