I already have an account, so why am I being asked to register on every visit?

You’ll need to be signed into your account on every visit in order to access our content. If you’re being asked to register, it means you aren’t logged in.

Once you’ve created an account and signed in, our system will remember your device, meaning you don’t have to sign in every time you visit on the same device. If this isn’t happening, please check your browser settings and ensure you are allowing cookies on our website.

Please note that if you are accessing our content from within the Facebook app, you will be using Facebook’s inbuilt web browser which doesn’t store cookies. This means that you may be regularly asked to sign into your account and won’t stay logged in. This is unfortunately down to the functionality of the Facebook browser and not an issue with the tech on our end. We advise all users to make use of our free email newsletter each day to keep up-to-date with our content as it’s published.
