If a customer reports that they haven’t received their raffle tickets by email, it typically comes down to one of three issues. Here’s how to diagnose and resolve each scenario.

Likely Causes:

The email landed in their spam/junk folder.
-
Their email provider blocked or filtered the message.
What to Do:
