Molly B. Posted July 14, 2021 at 03:48 PM Share Posted July 14, 2021 at 03:48 PM This is a new one to me. Registered an account for someone to renew their FOID card. Once identification info was entered, the site closed access and a notice popped up stating: Registration for this account is under review. You will not be able to access this account for four days. Anyone else experience this when registering a new account? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craigcelia Posted July 14, 2021 at 04:09 PM Share Posted July 14, 2021 at 04:09 PM Yes, I did this for someone yesterday and got the same message. I am in day one waiting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RealityCheck Posted July 14, 2021 at 05:27 PM Share Posted July 14, 2021 at 05:27 PM We used to see this at the dealer where I worked if the applicant said that they had once had a FOID card, but didn’t know the number. We assumed the ISP was checking old records manually (some of these FOIDs were long ago expired). Within 4 days the applicant would be able to sign in, and their prior FOID info was there.

Euler Posted July 14, 2021 at 06:03 PM Share Posted July 14, 2021 at 06:03 PM This is one thing some sites do (in addition to email verification) to stop spam bots. Is ISP worried about bots? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that was the case for this applicant as well. Didn't have her FOID card with her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craigcelia Posted July 14, 2021 at 07:26 PM Share Posted July 14, 2021 at 07:26 PM (edited) Ok, I just signed on for my "computer illiterate" friend. It let me on, no problem after I confirmed the new email I setup for him. Just renewed his CCL and all is good. So it took me a day.

Is ISP worried about bots?Yes, yes they are. Bots are not going to be eligible for FOID’s now. This is how the “gun violence” style handguns get into Illinois. Bots.

Mr Twain Posted July 20, 2021 at 07:29 PM Share Posted July 20, 2021 at 07:29 PM I wish we could find a way to volunteer time to help with the processing. I'd volunteer a few hours a week to help out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
