Yussss. It’s about time!
I think the sign up server is under a lot of load - my verification email did not arrive and the app website reported an error shortly afterwards.
TMR said to give it time as the load was higher than expected and some teething issues with the servers are messing with the rollout. Its a government body so the server and bandwidth will be the cheapest tier possible and the app developed by the lowest bidder, so give it time.
Basically they specced out the backend for the load it would expect when the system is in place and in use by the steady state number of users, not for the initial influx of thousands of people trying to set it up at once. rookie error for app service rollouts, but a common one with government services.
I think I’m missing something. Don’t the police or whoever check the license number, name etc. against a central record? Is this just about the convenience of not carrying around a plastic card? I feel like there’s more to it but I don’t know what.
They did announce that people should hold off as there are rollout issues (of course there are, it should have been expected)
So give it a few days.
