Hello,

 

  1. I would like to know if my profile has been aprroved....?
  2. Can you not have a status marker in the profile information so new users know whether or not they have been approved?

Thx,

Hi. I have submitted my account for review. It has been more than a week and I still haven't got any response

Hi Hafsa,

 

I checked your account and it looks like you haven't submitted it for review yet. To submit it for review, please complete all the details requested and click on "Review Application". Please make sure to fill in the fields that will be highlighted in red. When I checked, you haven't added the City where you're located also. Once everything is complete, you should be able to see the option to submit your profile for review. Thank you.

Hi there,

 

 I am hoping to shed some light on my account submission. I have tried submitting it various times, and it is not leaving the profile creation screen. It has been about a week so I wanted to check in and see if there is anything I can do to fix this.

Thank you kindly,

Hi Sarah, 

 

I checked your account and I can see that you are yet to submit your profile for review. You need to click the review application button to make sure you did not miss any section of the profile creation process. Any portion that is highlighted in red needs to be filled-in. Please review your application and update the missing fields to be able to submit your profile for review. In this case, please update the city field and resubmit your profile for review. 

 

Once you submit your profile, it takes at least 24 to 48-hours for the process to complete and you will be notified via email about your account.
