Some concerns raised by users

Users of the platform that are able to login claim the new interface is not user friendly.

Some are also unable to see certain features they deem essential.

Example is the change of contact form that is missing.

Speaking to one user of the platform, to him; the change of contact is very essential because anything can happen and one will need to change the contact used on the platform.

With todays’ linking of the Ghana card with the sim cards, its also important to be  allowed to change the contacts in case one is  unable to registered that particular sim on the platform.`

What not to do

Do not reset your password, since the system is still being upgraded, resetting your password would mean generation of new code for you which might not come due to the upgrading.

Most CAGD officers has advised users to stay calm as the portal is being worked on.
