Change Support Login and Registration info

[#1]

Need help in changing the Support Login and Registration info for Fortinet products. We used to outsource our IT Support, and we have cancelled the contract. We are now managing our Fortinet prodcuts in house. Problem is our Fortinet 50A and Fortinet 60 is registered to our old IT Support. We can' t get to support login because the product serial number has already been registered. I' ve emailed amer_support@fortinet.com last week, and its an automated response. Help is glaldy appreciated.

So what did the automated response say? I think you are going to have to wait for the registration support folks to change things over for you.

I don' t know what part of the world you are in but here in the US we have regional engineers that support the sales personell. Those people could maybe help you and either way they would be good contacts to have. Try to find out who those folks are and get their contact information from the people that sold you the gear or your old managed services contacts. Good Luck.

its been a week since i emailed AMER_Fortinet support, for requesting to change or reset the support login for our Fortinet Equipment. No help either from our old Third Party supplier, they said they dont have the support login, the person responsible have quit. i' ve called the 1-866 # and still voicemail. im still waiting patiently about this, hope you guys could help me out.

If you have support on other Fortinet devices, put in a ticket under one of them, and explain that you want the other two moved, and the rest of the situation. That may at least get your request in the door, so to speak. Your account exec. (If you guys originally bought the gear) should be able to get this resolved at the least. Find him/them and see if they can help. If they want more of your business, I think they would be inclined to help.

Did you try to open an issue in your old account explaining them to migrate the support contract to the new account? It works for me two year ago...
