What Is Wrong With OLC?

I've been trying for over a year to get the OLC people to fix my login.
I've filled out their help forms too many times to count and they don't
reply and they don't fix the problem. As it stands now, I can not
upload my flights to OLC. When I log in I get a message that states (in
German) that my email address is not valid. But it is valid. And I am
logged on successfully. Then, when I select to upload a flight, I get
the same message stating that my email address is invalid.

Is there anyone listening at OLC? Is there anyone in Europe who can
contact them on my behalf? My email address is
. It is a valid address.

Since I can no longer upload flights, I won't be providing financial
support any more unless it's fixed. Too bad, since I'm currently number
1 at Moriarty and number 14 in the USA.

I had the exact same problem and a frustratingly similar experience until I was given a tip, there's an issue using our Earthlink.net e-mail addresses on OLC (I use one also). Register for a free gmail address, change your OLC account to use that address and you'll be in business within 5 minutes. While I'd far prefer to use my earthlink address like I do for everything else, OLC doesn't seem to support them or say anything about this issue in their FAQs. Make the change and you'll be good to go.

Thanks.

Hannes from OLC got back to me and told me there was a "big fat bug" and
that he would fix it. He did! I'll still take your advice and switch
to a gmail address.

Thanks to all who had advice to try.
