What to Do if the Recipient Doesn't Receive the E-Card

Even after following all the steps, the person who was going to get the card from you might not receive it. There are several things that could have prevented the card from being delivered. Here are some things you can do to try to correct this.

Email Issues

Go back into your AmericanGreetings.com account to see if the email address for the recipient was entered correctly. Transposed letters or numbers in the email address is the main reason AmericanGreetings.com e-cards are not delivered. Double-check the email address, and if it's incorrect, make the necessary changes and resend the e-card.

Bulk Mail and Spam Folder

Sometimes the ISP sends the e-card to a bulk folder or spam folder. Ask your intended recipient to check in their spam folder or bulk folder for the e-card. The e-card may be in that folder instead of the recipient's inbox.

When both of those fail, you can send your confirmation email to the intended recipient and AmericanGreetings.com to correct the error. AmericanGreetings.com works with ISPs to try to prevent e-cards from being sent to spam or bulk folders, and it is committed to customer service and making sure e-cards are properly delivered.
