Thanks for keeping me up to speed on this frustrating little bug. I depend upon your feedback because I'm finding it hard to replicate from my end.
I've just changed the cookie name which means all auto-logins set before 7:15 on the 8th Jan will be killed. Meanwhile I've made some other little changes which may (or more likely, may not :-( ) fix the issue.

When you visit the site you should now only see https://pennymachines.co.uk... in the browser address area (in place of http://www.pennymachines.co.uk...) as I'm forcing that shorter version of the domain to avoid cookie errors.
Please let me know if auto-login works from this time forwards.

Can you let me know what Operating System and browser you use?
Are you seeing http://www.pennymachines.co.uk... or https://pennymachines.co.uk... top of page?

!!SUICIDAL!! I thought I'd really cracked it this time. :smash:
It's working fine for me on several devices.
Anyone else still experiencing this?

I'm changing the cookie name again and making one other change. This will again kill existing auto-logins, but let's give it a go.

I've got Windows 10 ; Edge the new version 25 and also Google. Both read https://pennymachines.co.uk

On both of these if I go away from the site and return I remain logged in but if I close the browser when I return I am logged out and have to log in again.

Hope this helps. John

This morning I had an auto log in and this afternoon I had to log in again. I'm on ios 8.3.
I think you're spending more hours with software than slots, am I right! !!JUNK!! :smash:

Sadly so. This is threatening to become the longest how-do-you-fix-it thread on the forum. :(

It's not a big problem, but I understand it is frustrating for you. When everybody has a problem like this with their machines I suppose there were no slotties any more!
