I'm not getting any invite emails to a test @gmail or @expensifail account. I tested both an existing and new customer.

[justinpersaud]

That's weird. I think you're supposed to be notified immediately for invitations.

[Christinadobrzyn]

Yeah, I thought I've received those before which is why I tried with an existing and new account. I still don't see any message sent to my gmail or expensifail account. Maybe I'll try again in a bit? Not sure

[melvin-bot[bot]]

@Christinadobrzyn Whoops! This issue is 2 days overdue. Let's get this updated quick!

[Christinadobrzyn]

Still not getting these messages - I tested again with an expensifail.com email.

@justinpersaud would you have any additional information on when an invite is sent? I'm not sure why I'm not getting these

[Christinadobrzyn]

sorry I haven't been able to test this again. I will test again tomorrow.
