Bugs Bite. Not for Long...

So over the past few days I have been getting e-mails from some of you to report various bugs you've encountered. I thought that it might make sense to post some of them here so that you are not caught by surprise the next time you try to use the phone system or website.

BUG #1 When you enter the Local Jones ID of a business over the phone, you hear, "You have enterred," then silence followed by "if this is correct press 1."

The reason you are hearing the silence is because we have not made audio recordings of all the business names. We could just use a computer voice, but we think that's really lame. We are working as fast as we can to record the business names.

BUG #2 When you try to fill out the merchant sign-up form it takes me to the consumer sign-up form

Ooops..this was our bad. We improperly linked the sign-up form on the "Advertise" page. This has now been corrected.

BUG #3 The images at the bottom of the "People" page and the full size images of user thumbnails aren't displaying correctly in your browser.

Yeah. This wasn't cute at all, but it has now been fixed. Praise hallelujah for developers who are willing to work on the weekends!

BUG #4 After you rate a business by phone it does not show up on your My Places page.

This is not a bug. In all likelihood you have forgotten to set up your phone account by calling into Local Jones after you registered on the website. If you didn't do this after you registered simply call Local Jones (214.245.0933), press 9 to go the account menu and then follow the instructions. Leaving messages for a business before you do this will cause the messages to be posted to that business' profile, but not your account.

These are all of the bugs we currently know about. If you have others please drop us a line at help@localjones.com. Also be sure to check out the help page.
