Why can't I log in to my Vome account?

Why can't I login to my account?

Overview

Almost every failed login comes down to one of four things. Work through them in order, because the first two are the most common by a wide margin.

SymptomLikely cause
The page has no login form, or looks unfamiliarWrong page. See question 1
Your password is rejectedWrong password. See question 2
You just signed up and cannot get inEmail not verified. See question 3
Your password is correct but nothing worksWrong sign-in method. See question 4

1. Are you on the right page?

The login page is www.vomevolunteer.com/login. Bookmark it.

Two pages are easy to land on by mistake:

  • support.vomevolunteer.com is this help site. You cannot log in to Vome from here.
  • www.vomevolunteer.com/register is for creating a new account. If you already have one, registering again will not help and may leave you with a second account.

2. Is your password right?

Reset it at www.vomevolunteer.com/forgot.

Enter the email address you signed up with, then follow the instructions to set a new password. If nothing arrives, check your spam folder before trying again.

3. Have you verified your email address?

A new account is not fully active until the email address is verified, so a brand new account that will not log in is usually this.

Look in your inbox and your spam folder for a message from noreply@vomenotifications.com with the subject [Vome] Authenticate your email address. Click the link inside it to finish setting up your account.

4. Are you signing in the same way you signed up?

This is the one that catches people whose password is definitely correct.

There are two ways to create a Vome account:

  • Email and password. You sign up with your email address and confirm it with a 4-digit code.
  • Social sign-on. You sign up with Continue with Google, Continue with Microsoft or Continue with Apple, and your provider handles the authentication.

Attention: you have to sign in the same way you signed up. If you created your account with Continue with Google, you must click Continue with Google every time. Typing an email and password will not work, because there is no Vome password on that account to type.

If you cannot remember which you used, try the social buttons first. They fail harmlessly if that is not your account type.

5. Still stuck?

Submit a ticket and our support team will pick it up. You can also email us at support@vomevolunteer.zohodesk.com.

Tell us the email address you are trying to use and which sign-in method you are choosing. Those two details resolve most tickets on the first reply.

Summary

  • Log in at www.vomevolunteer.com/login, not the support site and not the register page.
  • Reset a forgotten password at www.vomevolunteer.com/forgot.
  • A brand new account needs its email verified before it will work.
  • Sign in with the same method you signed up with. Social accounts have no Vome password.
