I am having my first E-Invitation party this month. My host has gone in & entered all her names & emails & sent emails. On just one of the people the host names shows not hers like the others but someone elses that I have never heard of. Anyone know why? Or what should I do?
 
Weird. Contact the Tech dept. at HO and let them know that there may be a glitch in the PWS system.

Ok, call tech dept they said someone else that was invited forward the email to a friend & that is why it shows her name. Didn't think to look through the list for her name :) Thanks for your help!
 
Ohh... I thought you meant that it wasn't showing the correct host name on the invite. That's a bigger problem. :)

glad you figured it out!
 
I have had this problem many of times and I try to contact tech support via the website and email and cannot get anyone to repsond. I have had several emails go out.... that the body of the email list a different host name wrong time and sometime the day, but if you look to the right of the body of the email all the info host name date and time is correct. this is getting very frustrating. My hostess tonight had several people show up 2 hours late due to the body of the email saying a different time. I even had one lady email me and say she has no idea who I am or who the host is and to please remove her from my list. I had to email back and apologize and explain who the email was from.
