Activating second SIM
I started using SMARTY a few months ago, and (without me asking) SMARTY sent me a SIM in the post to pass on to a friend, which I decided to use myself. I've just had enormous trouble jumping through hoops to activate it and start a group. When I went to smarty.co.uk/activate, it said "Already have an account with SMARTY? Log in to activate", so I logged in again. Apparently the only way to activate a SIM is to go to /activate, which takes me back round the loop of logging in again. I came to the conclusion that the only way of activating the SIM was to create a new account. So I tried to create it using my existing email address, but that didn't work, so I created a new email account so I could create a new SMARTY account. I was then able to start a group by sending an invitation to myself on my new account and accepting my invitation. My question is: Is the process really so complicated and convoluted? Was I missing something?
