Anyone not receiving in app purchase receipts from Apple?

I get the confirmation email of purchase but although the email address is correct I don’t receive the receipt by email after several days. I know I can look at purchase history. However I need the receipts.


I know the email address in Apple ID is correct and I used to receive them but they have stopped. There is nothing in spam or junk. My ISP has not blacklisted the address. I do receive the confirmation of purchase from iTunes after the purchase but not the receipt.


I have spoken to support and they even looked at things remotely. They are still investigating.


Does anyone have this problem?

iPad Air, iOS 13

I have the same problem since October 2019.


Try this on iPhone:

  1. Open the Settings app. 
  2. Tap your name, then tap iTunes & App Store.
  3. Tap your Apple ID, then tap View Apple ID. You might be asked to sign in.
  4. Scroll to Purchase History and tap it.

Finally tap RESEND

I too am having this problem! Stupid Apple... they ask us to go into iTunes/Music to see our purchases and if you use your iPhone, it does not show the actual amount - the tax is missing. Which makes it hard b/c when you balance against your bank account statements you need to actual total amount! I would really like to receive Apple receipts via email.

Hey all, I have a problem that I was curious if maybe tied into this problem, so while it's not exactly on topic I'm still going to ask in case anyone else has experienced this since the receipts problem started.


The Problem is: I have about 4 specific albums which won't load the contents in the music apple on Apple TV, 4, and 4K. The album contents load fine from the Mac either iTunes, or Music, and Music on iOS. Both Apple TVs are running TVOS 13.3, and the Mac is running Catalina 10.15.2, and the iPhone / iPad are on the corresponding 13.3 version of the os.


The Problem I have on the Apple TV(s) is when clicking on the albums to view the contents, I simply get the white screen with a spinning gear, and nothing loads. I've tried a restore / update on both units in case it was bad cache / data, and to ensure I had a clean install of the latest TVOS, however the problem persists, but only with those particular albums.


What's strange is, two of them were purchased before the receipts issue started, 2 were purchased after.


Also, the albums will play via Music on Apple TV either buy requires of Siri, or simply selecting the album, and pressing the Play button on the Siri remote. The issue is simply not being able to load the album info.


Was wondering if anyone else here has experienced this, and if you were able to resolve it. I haven't figure out how to, yet.


Thanks.

Same with me. It started on or about November 1st, 2019. The receipt emails stopped coming for my iTunes purchases; iBooks, iCloud storage, apps, movies, TV shows, etc., from Apple. Of course I get my notice from my credit card (AmEx) that a charge has been posted by iTunes. The last email receipt I received from Apple iTunes was Oct 30th. Starting with my November 10th receipt I have had to go the my iTunes Account and look up Purchase History and click on the ORDER ID ####### and then hit Resend, to get the receipt to my inbox.
