I have issued an invoice to a buyer through PayPal. The buyer says she never received the invoice. I have sent PayPal an email asking for direction and have not received an answer. I cannot speak so I cannot use the phone. Is there anyone out there that can help. Maybe I am not sending this invoice correct.

To send an invoice with PayPal:
- Log in to your PayPal account
- Go to the Request Money tab
- Click on the Create an Invoice subtab
- Select an invoice template or blank template
- Fill out the invoice
- Review it
- Click Send Invoice
- If you prefer, save your invoice as a template for future use
To pay you, the invoice recipient will:
- Open your email, read the invoice and see the PayPal payment button
- Click the payment button in the email
- Log in to the secure PayPal payment page
- Review the details of your invoice
- Click Pay
When you receive a payment, PayPal will:
- Send you a "You've received new funds" email with the payment information and a link to the payment details
- Record the payment in the Transaction History of your PayPal account

I am having the same issue. I followed the directions above and sent an invoice to myself (my personal email that is not connected to PayPal) so that I could see how it works and the email never went through. The first time I thought it might be because I hadn't verified my bank account but I have done that now and retried it and the email still doesn't go through.
