Emails not coming through.. Help understanding why. Promotional Items

I get over 200 emails a day. Most of them are advertising. I get the QVC special value notices and the ones from ShopNBC and many other retailers.

I have a spam folder that I check. I am fairly computer literate. My computer is not set up to block anyone by sender or by words.

I AM NOT GETTING ANY PROMOTIONAL EMAILS FROM HSN. If I buy something I get the email invoices. But no special value. I have called and called. Still no emails for promotion of sale items.

Does anyone have a clue what might be going on. On my end??? On theirs???? What might be going on?

I have never gotten an e mail from HSN for the specials

Stop being afraid of what could go wrong and start being positive what could go right.

Your provider may be filtering it out as spam. Try adding hsn@email.hsn.com to your address book, it may help. Smiley Happy I checked the email address from my last email from them...

Hopefully adding the email address will help. However, we are talking about two different providers. I changed them off after 6 months to see if it made any difference.

I guess you can say.... I LOVE A GOOD MYSTERY... and this one is a puzzle to be solved. Do I really want the specials values... perhaps not... just want to figure this situation out.{#emotions_dlg.biggrin}

My Google e-mail does that. I have to type in HSN or QVC or whatever I am looking for sometimes and then they ALL come up (from months ago).

Sign in and see what preferences you have checked . . .

I have signed in and have checked preferences. That is what is so strange. But I just did it again. If all else fails I might try the text message route. Perhaps that will work.

At this point I am just trying to solve a puzzle. I can certain tune in to find out information. But it is a challenge to make it right and or find out what is wrong.

I suspect the problem is on HSN's part. I had a similar issue with my e-mails from Amazon. It took them about three weeks to track down the issue and fix it. Drop them an e-mail and let them know you're having trouble and they'll resolve it.

I think I am on record for having "checked it out with them" for over a year. Seems that would be enough time. And I have tried just about everything including using an alternative email address. I guess as I said before... a good mystery... that "I just gotta solve," even if the result is not all that important. {#emotions_dlg.biggrin}

Update. In my mail this morning..... email.... from HSN for special value. Awesome. I just don't know how they fixed it and perhaps will never know.
