Hi. I have used Paypal several times to send money to charities. I have never had a thank you from any of them and I was wondering, does the recipient see my Paypal email address? Because if not that would explain why they are apparently not overwhelmed by my generosity!
Thanks.

Well when i sell and a buyer pays then i get their email addy but i am not sure if that would be the same for a payment sent via family/friends / gift but i would have thought it would.
Advice is voluntary.
Kudos / Solution appreciated.

Thank you. I can only assume then that they haven't bothered, which is odd, you'd have thought good causes would want to keep their donors happy. Ah well.
Thanks again
