What does 'Email(s) have already been used, please try another' mean?

Below are two reasons why you may see the notification of Email(s) have already been used, please try another when trying to add a client.

Example:

Email_s__have_already_been_used__please_try_another_.png

1. The contact already exists in your account

When you first add a client onto RealScout, there is no need to re-add them later to create a search. For your convenience, the system will not allow duplicate clients.

If you'd like to create a new listing alert (search) for them, simply click on ADD ALERT and choose their name from the drop down menu.

2. The contact previously unsubscribed or was deleted

When a client unsubscribes from RealScout or an agent deletes a Contact, the system will not allow the duplicate email to be added again, and you will see this notification.

A deleted Contact can be re-added by the agent. This is recommended only for intentional re-adds or recoveries. The safest path is to re-add the Contact and then archive them, so their history is preserved in RealScout.

If your client has unsubscribed and would like to start using RealScout again, please let support@realscout.com know their name and email and Member Success can help add them back for you.

Have questions? Please contact Member Success at support@realscout.com.
