What time, how many minutes  exactly after 11:00 did you register? Was it only early birds that could get through? Or is it just random.

 

Thanks.

About 11-25 I think

But I am sure it is as useful as a chocolate teapot

Same problem my wife had.

 

Are you under 60?

No, much older than that!

Can I ask your age?

 

My 42 year old wife had her email address accepted and received the registration form but it refused to accept her application although all the details are correct.

 

I am assuming it is because she is under 60?

 

I tried to enter my email address and it tells me that my email address is not a valid address!!

I am under 60yo

It accepted me

But as I say - snowball in hell, chocolate teapot...

After 3 rejections at 11:00, 11:10, 11:15,  I got through around 11:30 with a 4th email address...

I think it is random.

 

keep trying and use the gmail trick - add a period inside your email address to use it again.
[email protected] = [email protected] = [email protected] etc etc

 

Yes, it burns through email address like crazy. I got it on the 6th time and hotmail address.

Make sure to use real address, because once its accepted, they send you a link to complete registration.

 

Use Chrome browser, others do not seem to work at all.

 

Opening soon..... any good odds it is not open by 11.15?

 

I think it opened at 11:00:00 and closed at 11:00:01. Of course is just another April fool four months too late.

ok I got through finally after 20 tries....

 

 

Tip #1....

You can reuse your gmail account by placing a period "." anywhere in your name
[email protected] is the same as [email protected] is the same as [email protected]


#2. If successful the website will email a unique link to you

#3. Click the link in the email to fill out form.

#4 Must upload Photo of passport + visa. The app did not allow uploading 1 photo at a time. Must upload both photos at the same time.

 

#5. Finish the registration, but get errror message. Hit back button and it shows success.  Also, reclick the same link in the email again,  it will show a successful registration is completed.

There is no need for any of this. I've confirmed (by searching the insecure database when it was open to the world) that all email addresses were captured, even if it said it was already used. They will likely send out emails to all the email addresses that don't also contain the rest of the form information with links to complete the form. That is if they can figure out how to query the database for the correct records LOL

Due to the site being overloaded with registration of email addresses.

 

 

Yes , but that only happened around 11.30 I had been getting the error message on 3 different email addresses since it opened.

They are experiencing delays sending out the link emails now.

 

 

First attempt I was told that the email address I've been using for 20 years is "invalid". Tried again with a different address and got the following:

In one of Richard Barrow's twitter threads on the site's security breach, people are posting pictures of the database, with people's names and emails blacked out.  One person said they saw "a lot of" (number unspecified) of Thai names on this foreigner registration app.  I suspect that that is where it is possible many (most?) of the Pfizer doses will go: to Thais who also hold an American or other foreign passports.

Nothing to do with age, go back to check all the info is correct

 

Some sections to look at

 

Address, it asks for your address as registered with immigration, but entering house or unit number is not accepted, need to put condo name or village name

 

Birthdate. entering manually does not get accepted, need to scroll through to get down to your year, month and date

 

Illnesses, make sure its ticked no, otherwise have to attach medical certificate

 

Make sure to have 2 pics, visa and passport

Some info that may be of use to anyone who reads it.

 

While their database was open to the public (the morons used just the first portion of the registration URL as their record admin page), I was able to confirm that anyone completing this registration had all of their data in the database, and all of the email addresses that said "already taken" are also in the database. My guess is that they will send email links to any record in that database that isn't complete, so people can complete them. If you entered 6 email addresses, you can expect 6 emails with links (if I'm correct). 

 

Not only was the database open to the public for a period of time, but it was searchable. I was able to search my record by entering my email address, and saw all of the info that I entered into the form. I was able to search several email addresses of a friend who got the "already taken" message, they were all in the database.

A simple pop up to the effect of “ your email address has been registered please wait for an email “ would have stopped a lot of blood pressure rises and dog being kicked I think .

So after half a dozen attempts to complete the registration form and getting an error message stating the data could not be verified and then giving up, my wife gets an email saying Registration Successful. Appointment will be confirmed later....watch this space.

You don't think that's asking too much of the programmers? These are programmers who have sinced added "dddd" to the header on various pages on the site, to confirm that their changes were uploaded. We're not talking about the best of the best here.

There might be a need for this IF this is first-come first served, ie who ever completes today is first in line. Not sure if the powers that be, will prioritize the completed-registration date-timestap,  or honor email registered date-timestamp.


After people receive their emails from the glitch tonight,  their completion date-stamp might show up as last in line. No idea how this will play out, honestly...but there were some gov't handouts + travel promotions that used first-come, first-served methodology..

Yes, all correct.

 

But after half a dozen failed attempts (data cannot be verified) and giving up she received a Registration Successful email anyway.

I think that’s fair enough.... 

 

This whole vaccine screw up is a complete shambles....   the idea that anyone is separated from anyone else is abhorrent. I do not standby any idea or policy which vaccinates foreigners of any nationality above or their Thai neighbours, equally so I do not standby any idea of policy which vaccinates Thai’s above or beyond any foreigner. 

 

Simply put: Thailand needs to vaccinate everyone with equality: Vaccinate those in high risk groups and those of age first, in order of age - vaccinate the whole country, not just Bangkok first. 

 

Healthy 20, 30 and 40 year olds should not be getting the vaccine ahead of anyone of any nationality who is older and / or has underlying health conditions. 

 

 

The problem of course is that the minds of those handling the vaccine roll out are wildly unequipped to face the logistical issues involved with a national vaccine roll out. This was perhaps combined with the ‘arrogance’ that Thailands existing measures would protect it while it remained closed off and the rest of the world would be left to fight off Covid-19.... Thailand is now reaping the sorry consequences on not planning well enough for the vaccines roll out. 

 

Thailands vaccine policy now seems to rely on the hope that other countries donate better vaccines than Sinovac; which is currently better than nothing, but it takes the place of other more effective vaccines the acquisition of which should be prioritised. Additionally, Thailands Siam Bioscience has clearly ‘overstated’ its potential but can’t be publicly criticised because..... erm.

Fair enough. I don't know what their policy will be. However, during the process I went through they did call this a preregistration, which seems to indicate to me that a timestamp here will not be important. They've also updated their page saying that [sic]"Due to high number of registration, your confirmation email may be delayed" -- they're very aware that they've collected tens of thousands of email address that were not able to complete the form, so perhaps they won't rely on a timestamp because of this programming error on their part.

It was posted earlier that they pressed the Back button and they could see the accepted message

Never saw that. 

 

I just pressed the next button.

Oh well.

They also don't have thousands of doses for foreigners.

I'm sure of this.

I'm still waiting for emails for the two addresses I used. It's been at least an hour and a quarter now.

I expect that if you have the '  email already been used ' message then it must have registered and then you will receive further info later in your email inbox. 

Another complicated, kludgy, unsecure pre-registration site.

 

What happened to the simple one-page Google Form pre-registration sites.

 

 

You can't fix stupid. 

 

Maybe time to stop teaching it here?

Looks like I am registered, took me straight in on the first email they sent and the acceptance email came through straight away once I lodged the form with all the info. 

Your registration for the FIRST dose of COVID-19 vaccination is successful.
Once available appointment slot is sent to your email, please confirm within 24 hours.

Failure to confirm within 24 hours will result in the cancellation of your preregistration.

For those residing in provinces other than Bangkok and neighbouring provinces (Nakorn Pathom, Nonthaburi, Pathum Thani, Samut Prakan and Samut Sakhon), the Ministry of Public Health will assign a vaccination site in your area. Your vaccination allocation will be provided according to priorities set by the Ministry of Public Health, i.e. age group, vulnerability, high risk zone e.t.c
