Hi, I bought this issue as a single issue download and I've just checked the account and it seems the payment definitely went through on the 12th Feb. I haven't received a download link yet. Is that normal? The invoice ID 427435290 and trans #2H270337PR8950120. My email is twelthnight@hotmail.com
Regards,
Tanya

You get 2 options.
#1 you can download it immediately upon ordering (before leaving the site, after paying), or
#2 use the link and code that comes in the order confirmation email -which is good for the next 2 weeks.

I resent your confirmation email.
