Default Total Wines website - log in faster

Whenever I try to log in to the Total Wines website it just sits and whirls, no matter how long I wait.

If I open another tab and try to log in again, switch back to the first tab (still whirling), then switch back to the second tab it has invariably logged straight in.

Anything that gets me to wine more quickly can't be bad.

It would help to know what operating system and what browser you are using. I can try on something close to see what my experience is.

I assume you are starting at totalwine.com

Yes, re totalwine.com

Using Windows 11 and Firefox

Mrs Fox gets in immediately using the App, so I suspect Firefox may be the problem

I use 11 and Firefox too with no problems. I’ll see if I can break it but …

I experienced the problem.
- I opened totalwine.com and noticed the store was set to Tallahasee
- I set the store to Lady Lake
- I attempted to login and it hung with the spinning icon
- I opened another tab and logged in with no problem
- The initial tab was still spinning.

Unfortunately, it wasn't repeatable.
- I tried everything I could to duplicate the problem but once it logged in properly it didn't have the problem again.

Could be your ad blocker, or your lack of an ad blocker. Blockers can sometimes hang things up.

Adding to the list -

Firefox updates
Your internet provider
Windows 11
Totalwine website is in the cloud
Time since your last reboot

all these can have a potential cause in what you are experiencing. Since it's difficult to replicate it's a 'craps table' on what is the actual cause, and with the list as long a it is....best I can say is grin and bear it.... or better yet use the phone app. I have had an easier time using their app.
