Troubleshooting

Emails aren't arriving

The confirmation link, sign-in links or notifications don't reach your inbox.

  1. Look in spam, junk or promotions. If you find a PerfectPal email there, mark it as not spam so the next ones arrive.
  2. Wait a few minutes. Most arrive within a minute, but some providers hold new senders for a while.
  3. Ask for a new link. On "Check your email", a new link can be sent once the timer runs out. Sign-in and reset links can be asked for again too. Always use the newest link: older ones stop working.
  4. Check the address. Typed it wrong at sign-up? Create your account again with the right one.
  5. Check your email settings. Optional emails might be off or set to a daily digest: see Emails and notifications. Everything still shows in your notifications (the bell).
  6. Work or school address? Their filters sometimes block automated emails. A personal address is more reliable.

Still nothing? Contact support without signing in: the contact form works with any email address.
