Question regarding registration for attending babscon

[Bubs 26]

TL;DR: should I have received an email confirmation after registering for babscon?

 

First off: hi, I'm new here, and as English isn't my native language, apologies for any linguistic errors.

 

About 2 weeks ago I made the decision to undertake a huge trip from The Netherlands to San Francisco and attend BABSCon in 2017. So I registered for a ticket on the babscon website and paid with paypal. Afterwards I got redirected to a page that I supposedly paid and that was it. No mail or any other form of confirmation that I can bring to show as a ticket of proof.

 

I kinda was expecting at least a confirmation e-mail, as I was required to submit an e-mail address on registration. So I emailed babscon about this, using the same e-mail address, but to date I still haven't got a reply.

 

Now this may be an issue caused by me using my private/own e-mail server which could be recognized as "not safe" or something like that (there's no thing as a spam folder or filtering configured on that server, so that's not the problem). Or maybe it's just that no confirmation e-mails are being send, I don't know?

 

Could anyone confirm that this is the default (non)action after registering for babscon?

did you check your CC or paypal statement to see if you actually paid. 
this happend to me at B-con 2016.

Both Paypal and my bankaccount confirm that I don't own the money anymore and babscon/harmonious elements does. So yeah, I did pay.

Then you should be fine, since you have documentation.

Ok. I was just expecting some kind of email with this info as well, as a proof as I did have to supply an email address. I'll just make some printouts then which I'll bring along. Thanks!

Today I received the email confirmation I was expecting in the first place, with a QR-code and all. Now I'm 100% certain I gonna be there!
