Is anyone else lagging? I cant even load the page to create a WES account or even register for a computer account pissing me off since I want to do all the preps before I enrol at the campus
-
You can do it in the morning, it won't make a difference to your course
Also, the UoM site is working fine :P
-
fine ill do it tomorrow morning, i just want to get it done with so that i don't falsely reject my offer
lucky bastards at UoM :P
-
Yep, very slowwww! There's a survey they're forcing new registrations to do, so I'm in the process of submitting that before I can continue to creating my account.
Edit: Just agreed to ITS policy.... and it's loading...
-
im 1 step after that..
i entered my address details but for some reason it is not correlating with the ones in their database.. the fuck
-
Ohh that's awkward. I'm up to that step too.
-
just finished the survey and now waiting....

Oh, the irony of how Monash students bag the living crap out of our technologies. haha
-
haha I'm sure it's just a one-off ;)
-
Can we do this any day before our enrolment or does it have to be before our course subject day
-
I think its gotta be done before enrolment day, for me that's the 28th jan
-
Mine now won't move pass password selection! argh

I think you have to go to the beginning and go through it again.
It's a joke - I can't imagine there being a massive strain on their servers right now and it's still lagging like crazy!
-
I guess we shall try again tomorrow morning, at like 7am when everyone is dead asleep and the server operating at its optimum level

You're not alonee

What, right after every new students finds out about offers? Servers usually die at this time of year, just wait it out. Won't make much difference.
-
When is the deadline to complete this?
-
i am sooo annoyed
done the password thingy and goes blank then 10 mins later says "server time up please start again"
GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
-
FFS still lagging, they better fix this before enrolment day -____-
-
after sending my password it says that i have to click the X button to prevent other people from accessing my account... so i did that and my account still hasnt been created Wtfffffffff
-
I havn't even gotten to that part, I was at the fill in your details part and my address wasn't even correct according to their database..
Which database did they use? The one from VTAC or.. this is confusing me
-
I can't believe it is still slow up till now..
-
Avo, really? Make sure it is just your street/road etc name and not the number... I doubt they would have a different address to your current residence
-
Yea I tried my streetname alone, with Ct and Court and even the number and none of them works :/
-
Oh, good, I thought it was just me! Yeah, I get to the part where I set my Authcate password and then it just goes to a blank page and stops. Grr.
-
What is your Monash ID, if you're registering for the first time? We don't have one right? Because I have no idea how my address doesn't correlate with their ones which obviously would have been taken from VTAC
-
gah can't get passed making the password
my dad keeps saying "call them" and "we'll just go down there" but I can't see how that would help any
looks like I'll just have to get up at some odd hour of the morning to do it >_>
-
What is your Monash ID, if you're registering for the first time? We don't have one right?
they tell you the monash ID once you've logged in, after signing the agreement I think
-
I think it's the whole server that is fked up so they need to fix it nothing we can do now..
btw all this online shit can be done on the 21st Jan (info session) at the campus right?

Oh.. ok thanks
They get all our contact details through VTAC right?
-
Did anyone actually successfully made an account?
-
Do we have to do every step in one day? Or can we say create an monash account one day, then WES the next day etc?
-
u can do wes next day
-
It's so frustrating! I can't get passed entering the password bit either. But I have until Monday. Would have been nice to just get it over with..
-

Did you actually manage to make an account? I tried so many times and it doesn't work (blank page after entering password)
-
It takes 10 years to proceed onto the next step and in the end I'm left with a blank page (x14)
this is so frustrating.
what time does the information session on the 21st end, anyone know?
& is anyone with business and economics at caulfield?

nah i havent even started actually.
-
the site is still lagging so bad
can't seem to get past the set password page
a lot of people experiencing this? im getting a bit frustrated at the monash server!!
-
If we can't do it at home can we do all this stuff on campus on the 21st right?
My street name is <5 letters so maybe thats why it doesn't correlate so I can't get passed this procedure, i'll have to check when i go to the campus
-
i thought the 21st was info sesh? hopefully we can do the online account there
im certain the server is going to keep lagging
has anybody tried it at an odd hour say 5 in the morning?
-
Apparently the information session on the 21st isn't Complusory as it states in VTAC.
-

I tried at around 3am still no luck
-
I'm planning on trying at like 3am, so then I have a chance of falling back to sleep
5 is too close to my normal wake up time >_>

and does anybody know if monash is open right now for calls or sth?

I called up the tech department earlier and they answers, well it was an automated thing but it was on
but I hung up straight away because then the next page loaded, so I thought it was working

This is the message i received after setting a password:
Temporary Downtime
System Offline
This system has been taken offline temporarily whilst testing/development work is conducted. While this message is in place the system is being actively worked on.
Expected return time: unknown

______________
WELL THAT'S HELPFUL, MONASH ADMIN!!
well so i see no point in wasting money calling them
-
Ah, at least you've gotten thru to that message! I'm selfishly glad it's not just my old dial up laptop that's having problems.
-
yeah i got that downtime server msg too
-
I did mine at about 7 this morning... and I got the account made and access to the portal etc. Maybe try tomorrow morning.
Are all of the enrollments on the same day? Because mine is on the 25th..?
-
nope. mines 28th
-
Ahh okay :) Thanks
-
Still stuck on the password page.. praying that it won't die on me D:
-
Guys, you actually have to call the student service centre for them to fix it up if you keep getting the blank screen. It means you've registered but something went wrong. They can fix it quite easily.

OMG THIS IS HAPPENING TO ME TOO.
About to kill Monash's website. I get past the username and password page, and the street name, and then this comes up!

Ooh, do you have the number? What are their hours?
-
Does anyone else have a problem with getting your address right, since mine is a 3 letter street name it requires me to put Ct or Court but everything i've tried just isnt working
-
its the same street name you put in vtac :\
-
Don't put court, ct, street, st etc
If you still have problems you might want to call them tomorrow.
They fixed my problem.
-
Yeah i'll probably call them
they said if you have <5 characters for your street name try putting in the 'Ct' or 'Court'
If your street name has less than 5 characters, eg 'York', then enter another word from your street address, eg 'York Avenue'
-
Oh ok sorry I didn't know that. Hmm that is strange if it doesn't work and you did it correctly though.
The number is 9902 6011 and I think they work from 9am-4pm
-
eff that.
you have to call them to log on? what a joke.
get your internet straight monash lol
-

Yea and if you want help it directs you to another login page (AuthCate) which needs a login+password and obviously you wouldn't have one if you are trying to register for a WES account ..

New student account registration issues
Monash is currently experiencing technical difficulties with the process by which new students establish their Authcate account.
Users will experience a very slow response, and may even be timed out. Monash is working as quickly as possible to resolve this issue.
It is recommended that you delay attempts to establish your Authcate account until this notice no longer appears. The service will be restored earlier if possible. Thank you for your patience.
by tomorrow would be nice
-
When is the deadline for Authcate?
-
When is the deadline for Authcate?
Whatever date that you have to enrol by.

So is that the 25th for us?

Yep
-
Alright cool.
-
Has anyone called?
Im sure all they'd say would be to be patient and keep trying until the servers up.. but im curious.
Its a little bit of an anticlimax not being able to enrol after getting the offer ! :(
-
Ah, just received the error msg myself, guess when that disappears we shall retry. Hmph.
-
Farout.... i wonder if anyone has managed to register yet?
-
Farout.... i wonder if anyone has managed to register yet?

-
Oooo nice one grevenchorf.
-

-
It's funny how its the Tassie boy thats been able to create an account, yet all of us Victorians have failed :P
-
It stopped lagging btw, but I still can't get passed the details part so i'll have to call them tomorrow
-
I think theyre upgrading their servers maybe? coz i get to the password part which then it fails.
-
well its stopped lagging but the servers still down :@
they're probably trying like hell to fix it or else we'll start to hate monash lol
-
IT FINNALLY WORKED :D
-
It's UP and Running ^^
-
Haha i couldnt be stuffed so I just called them and they gave me the ID and pw :)
-
yay same! FINALLY
-
Farout.... i wonder if anyone has managed to register yet?
Did it yesterday in the morning. :)
-
so now it's finally working and my dad is out and he has my tax file number hidden somewhere >_>
-
I just called them up :) It's quick and easy.
-
i'm on hold with them atm
-

You can call the ATO on 13 28 61 just in case you've lost your number. They'll ask you a few questions just to identify you.
-
I'm overseas atm and using dial-up xD. What's the deadline for this people? I'm still getting stuck after the password bit.

thanks! I did this, much better than waiting for my dad who only just got home.
-
guys i dont have a tax file number, is it compulsory to have one?
(currently being processed) :\
-
I think you do require one to be eligible to take out a government HECS-HELP loan because then you are obligated by law to repay the debt when your income is above the minimum threshold (~$45,000) for compulsory payment
EDIT If you are waiting to get your TFN, you can show your application certificate to the service centre staff. They can change your payment option for you.
-
thanks for your help avo, really do appreciate it...
last question though, when is the 'census date?'
"Obtain a HECS-HELP loan for ALL or PART of my student contribution amount
You must provide your TFN or a Certificate from the Tax Office on or before the census date. Payments of $500 or more will attract a 20% discount "
-
I think its the end of March (read it here)
-
thanks :D :D :D :D :D

i think i might pay $500 ;)
how do we do this though?

I'm interested in doing this too, I'm guessing they'll tell us at the info sessions!
-
Do you realise that the 20% discount is not on the whole amount - it's only on the portion which you pay.
eg. if you pay $500 it will take $625 off your debt

@matty
oh well that changes things LOL
