Q: I requested a resend of my activation e-mail, but did not receive it.
There are several reasons you might not receive your confirmation e-mail:
- You entered the wrong e-mail address. If you entered the wrong e-mail address, you will need to sign-up again.
- You may have Free-CardMaking.com blocked in your e-mail preferences. Checking for this varies depending on which company you use for your e-mail.
- Your Internet Service Provider and/or E-mail Service Provider may be blocking and/or filtering e-mail from Free-CardMaking.com. If you have checked all of the mail controls indicated above, more than likely this is the problem, please contact the company that you use for e-mail and ask them to stop blocking or filtering your e-mail. If you continue to experience issues receiving our e-mails, you may want to subscribe to a free e-mail service provider (such as Gmail, AOL Mail or Hotmail) to receive e-mails from us. You will need to update your account on the site, and re-sign up for your daily e-mails.
Q: I can't remember my password!
Not a problem! At Free-CardMaking.com we don't require you to remember a long, confusing password. You can access our great content by logging in using the e-mail address you used during the sign-up process.
