Account blocking issue

[Con Hennekens]

@b0hd1, the problem with that is that it opens the possibility of "self-managing" many devices. @brian-mcg is quite right in his assessment of devices per month...

[Lluis Arasanz]

@con-hennekens , In my proposal, I put 2 conditions:

• Self managament of devices with a limit of 2 devices (as now)
• Limit for devices change: Detect more device change than a limit (staff managed) to avoid multidevice self managing change.

In any case, no more than 2 devices allowed to run, no account blocking but user self device deregister.

We do not ask for more licenses, only a flexible way to change devices.

About block, in my case it show that:

So I can't logout and no use on any device

The issue is avoiding being locked out and unable to use Next. This might happen while you're traveling—perhaps due to a broken or lost device—and you don't know what to do. In my case, the account was canceled at 4:30 PM on Sunday and reactivated at 7:20 AM on Monday. I'm not trying to provide a solution. I simply want to highlight the problem and hope that those with expertise can find a less critical solution.

same here but i was happy that my first phone still worked. if that was not the case i also had to wait for support.

i was also on a travel and i did not realize hard way its way. i could on ios not stop active.... at the end is was not active but max devices.

for me it was not clear max active and max devices.... last i still do not know when or how it will reset.

phone that was still working i will not use but is still in list.

i did pay for 2 extra and i do hope it is activated soon before vacation.

i never did give away or borrowed my account to others.

but in short there was a problem.

i support MRA.

If like me you want use more then 2 then ask for extra devices. ok it cost money but then MRA can work also with more devices.

if you read all, you read i had contact with support and it was reset but i never got info about max devices and how it would be reset.

for now i am in proces to get 2 extra devices on my account and i watch out until then that i will change to much.

but if there is a problem just contact support and then will solve it.

[Marinus van Deudekom]

So contact support again

@Con-Hennekens I think you've misunderstood the concept. There's no need to open anything extra. Just like I log into my account via the web for other things, from here I could see, once the account is blocked (using the same criteria as before), which teams I have registered, and delete the ones I need to reactivate it myself. This would save the staff time and effort. In Spain, there's a saying: "Give them the fishing rod, not the fish, or they'll never be self-sufficient."

[Con Hennekens]

@b0hd1, no I am not missing the concept. I do understand your wish, but fact is that HERE charges licenses per device per month. If you give people "self maintenance" they can use more devices each month then paid for. It is not about simultaneous use, it is about devices per month. We have a saying in the Netherlands too: "If you give someone a stick, he will find a reason to hit you with it"

I am not saying nothing is possible though. But I do understand the reasoning. I think the current state of the limitations also is a bit of experiment, to see how bad the abuse is. Other measures will likely follow, like an upgrade of the subscription though a webshop. Your and other people their input will be used for possible improvement. MRA already showed the care about their customers

[b0hd1]

@Con-Hennekens Well, licenses are limited per month. I don't see the problem. I'm just saying we shouldn't have to depend on staff to delete teams. I insist on the concept: maintain ALL current limitations. Give the user the management of OCCASIONAL TASKS.
