# Unable to Log In

## Unable to Log In There can be several reasons why you are unable to log in.

 

### **1. You are trying to log in to the wrong website**

There are many different websites:

- Double check if you are trying to log in at the correct domain

You may only have an account for one of these websites.

### **2. You have two separate accounts**

It is possible to have:

- one account on **website A**
- and another account on **website B**

In that case, you must use the correct login details for the correct website.

For example:

- You are trying to use your **website A** account to log in to w**ebsite B**
- Or you are trying to use your **website B** account to log in to **website A**

 

### **3. Username must be unique**

Your username must always be unique.

This means:

- If you already have an account on **website A**, you cannot create a new account on **website B** using the same username.
- The same applies the other way around.

 

**Why this can be confusing**

For example:

- You already have a website A account.
- You try to retrieve your login details on website B.
- The system says:  
  **"0 details found"**
- But when you try to create a new account using the same username, you receive a message saying that the username is already in use.

 

### **Email address vs username**

Many users use their email address as their username.

Because of this, users sometimes think they are not allowed to use the same email address twice.

This is not correct.

You may use the same email address, but you cannot use the same username for multiple accounts.
