Email / SMS Alerts Slow

Posted a job at 15:03, email arrived at 16:42<br><br>I'm not the only one, just had 2 telephone calls from subbies who have just received the texts.<br><br>As the job was urgent and needed collecting at 16:30 wasn't much point posting it.<br><br>Regards<br>[name]<br><br>PS The news feed page still shows a 'Make Offer' button even though the job was deleted.<br>

<p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;" class="MsoNormal">I was one of those subbies who contacted [name] as soon as I got the text at (16:43) after talking to [name] I checked my e-mail which showed it had arrived at (16:42)</p>

<p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;" class="MsoNormal">This seems like a long time to get information through especially when a customer needs something urgently.</p>

<p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;" class="MsoNormal">Regards [name]  </p>

Yes, sorry about that. I think I am safe in saying that (other than when the mobile networks occasionally add a bit of delay to txt alerts) our alert system is usually pretty quick? (If not, I'm sure you'll tell me).<br><br>Today we were unlucky, as the system tripped up when someone put an apostrophe in a postcode, which made it stop alerting until we kicked it off again, at which point your job had alerts sent out.<br><br>We've told the system how to handle that situation with no delay in future.<br><br>[name]<br><br><br>
