You will normally receive a quick notification via email containing your download instructions. Check the email account that you have registered with PayPal and then check your junk email to make sure our response was not binned by your over-zealous computer! In exceptional circumstances the Paypal transaction may have been delayed. This can cause a problem with our automated response service. We will be aware of your transaction but will have to process the transaction manually – this may take up to 48 hours. Please be patient as we may be sleeping or having a ‘family day’ away from our computers.
