Which is it?
Thanks

I had the same question when I started and had to upgrade to Diamond to get it to work. I agree it could do with better wording. I was confused too and others have referred to it as well. Come on KVS people, it's a small change to modify the wording given all the feedback.

Thanks for letting me know golfmad. Not sure I want to part with my money if I don't know what I'll be getting though the product looks ok.

We have a case of false advertising then :td:

I think that's a bit strong. Just a little unintentional ambiguity I'd say. I'd recommend that they fix it as soon as possible though.

KVS Support ???
 
Hi,
Is there an official support email ? or support team telephone number?
I am not getting any response from KVS,
I still haven't been issued my Permanent Registration Credentials,
I got my Temporary Registration Codes on the 16th which was issued instantly but after two days it ran out. I sent an email this morning but as there is no support ticket, so I don't know if they got my email.

Thanks
Rich.

hey is there any way to get kvs on my HP touchpad? When I try downloading crossover it says it can't open the "MIME".

I tried the mobile companion online but its pretty limited.

Welcome to the KVS Tool!

Your 2 Registration requests have been successfully received earlier on today and your Permanent Credentials will be issued shortly.

As always, it is best to complete the Registration Wizard form right away, so that your Permanent Credentials arrive well before your Temporary Code expires.

Not ideal, but I just started using Splashtop on my Android tablet. It allows me to remote into my laptop at home and from there I can run KVS. Requires that you have a PC with KVS up and running at home or somewhere though.

thanks
 
I thought it would automatically send me a reg code, i didn't realize that i had to register two times. Sorry, it wasn't clear for me.
Now I get it :) Thanks for sorting out the issue, i look forward to the codes. thanks
Rich.

i thought about doing that, there's a great splashtop app for the tp, but it's annoying to be dependent on always having your computer on at home. if the computers in sleep mode can you access it? or only if its on and "up"?

Are there any plans for adding Galileo Availability to the mobile app? Without it I can't see AA.

On the over view page it is clearly stated that the Award Availability section list shows SkyTeam Award Availability (AF KL DL SU KEP MU) under Platinum, but when clicking the link it shows that it's only available for Diamond subscribers :confused:

Which is it?

Thanks

Award Availability for many carriers is accessible via more than one Method in the KVS Tool.

SkyTeam Award Availability for AF KL DL SU KE MU can be checked via a combination of the the [WSpan: Awards/DL-SkyTeam], [Galileo: ETR] & [Sabre: GTC] Methods, all of which are available at the Platinum level.

For additional information, please select the [Detailed View] on the Membership Options page: http://Levels.KVSTool.com/

The main KVS Tool application requires a 'proper' machine to run on (desktop, laptop or NetBook).

CrossOver can be used to run the KVS Tool on Mac & Linux systems.

The KVS Tool Mobile Companion supports all of the most common 'on-the-go' functions and can be used on all Mobile & Tablet Devices (incl. HP TouchPad):

However, if you require additional functionality, a remote access solution (such as the one, described by jasonvr above), would certainly work.

While the currently-displayed information is accurate, specific proposal(s) that would improve clarity, would certainly be most welcome...

The KVS Tool Mobile Companion fully supports AA flights via its standard [Availability] function.

By TP, do you mean Transformer Prime (that's what I am using). I think the PC would have to be on. In theory Wake on LAN could help, but I don't know how you would trigger it based on the way Splashtop works,
