Subscriber Access Difficulties
- If when attempting to register for the first time you are taken to the
"How to Subscribe" page instead of "Member Information" or "Subscriber
Information" page:
- You may be using a different e-mail address than the one entered into our
database (e-mail addresses must be exact or the database will not recognize
the user.)
- Contact Customer Service (e-mail:
customerservice@nickles.com)
- You have viewed the Rig Locator online before but now you are asked to
enter your e-mail address and password:
- It would seem that one of two things has happened:
- The cookies in your browser have been deleted. Your password is
saved in a cookie text file. This is to allow you
to access the Rig Locator without having to enter your password each
time. Often cookies are stored in temporary files and sometimes
inadvertently they are deleted. If this is the case you will need to
request a new password.
- You are trying to access the Rig Locator from another browser,
workstation or remote location. Since the password is saved in a cookie
only the browser that you initially registered on can be used without
needing to request a new password.
Request a New Password
- Go to the Rig Locator home page at
www.riglocator.ca
- Click on "Contractors' Summary"
- On the page where it says "This is a paid subscription site"
insert your e-mail address and click <OK>.
- At the bottom of the page where it says "Email my password to me"
select this link
- Click on <Email My Password> button
- When you receive your new password it is best to copy and paste it into the
password field on the User Login page as sometimes typos are made. This happens
because, when viewed with a serif font, such as Times New Romans, numbers can
look like letters and visa versa (e.g., the number "1" and the letter
"l".)
