I haven't received my license yet, where is it?
Have you checked your spam filters? This is the commonest reason for you not to have received your licensing email after purchase. Unfortunately you won't always know that an email from us has been trapped, since some ISP's do spam filtering before mail even reaches your inbox. We recommend that you specifically whitelist any email from runrev.com to ensure you receive your licensing information and important customer communications. If you've checked your spam filters and you still can't find the missing email, please email us
