Log in isn't recognising my memorable word. I tried resetting it, still not working. Searched Google; apparently an issue for several users.

Back and forth several messages - me trying to get across that there's a glitch in the website.
Is My Health-online what it should be?
My Health-online is regrettably a poorly constructed software programme. Its main failing is only one way communication, upwards, that appears to be reliant upon interpretation at GP staff levels, where errors occur.

The experienced outcome is that MHOL forwards the requests to the GP's nominated practice, for approval.
So not user friendly
So not user friendly : Was very complicated to log in. Link key was at the bottom of text message. How on earth would an older person manage who's not tech savy. And with my GP practice you still have to phone them as you can't book appointment through this site. So what is the point of it ?

Utter rubbish
Utter rubbish. Just tried to log in and was told that the letters of my memorable word were incorrect. Checked it against the 'hint', even though I knew I had not made any mistake. The letters I used were correct. Cannot log in, now locked out. Last time this happened I had to go to the GP surgery with my passport to be re-registered.

I've been using Patient Access for years. Both web-based and their app. The press is now pushing people towards the NHS app but it seems to have the same sort of functionality. Like book GP appointments, request repeat prescriptions, view your medical record, send a message to your GP etc.
