If a user has trouble using DirectID, we recommend asking the questions below. Sometimes the answers reveal the cause. If not, they allow us to investigate further.
Questions for the user
- What were the date and time of the failed attempt or issue?
- What URL do you use to log in to your bank? (such as https://bank.barclays.co.uk/olb/auth/LoginLink.action)
- What bank name did you select in the Widget?
- Did you see any error message or code?
- What was your general experience? Did it feel like it stalled or stopped? Did the process seem to finish and then show an error message?
- How many times did you try to log in with the Widget (and on your bank website)?
