Help with bulk invites


Michael J. Oghia
 

Hi everyone,

Can someone help me with this issue? I'm the owner of my account, and I just purchased a premium account. Yet, I keep getting this message when I try to invite people (130 addresses total):

You have reached the limit for number of invites that can be sent out without approval. Once your new invites have been approved, they will be sent out. You will receive a notification when this happens.

What does this mean exactly? I am the owner, so am I not already approved? Is it something with my settings maybe?

Thank you!
-Michael Oghia

It's in place to help prevent spamming.? Take a look at /g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/20-Invitations-Limit

Having a premium group, you have the option of direct adding people, but it has the same limitation.

Hi Duane, all:

Thank you for the link, that makes sense, though it is also quite frustrating. I'm guessing the admins are in PST time, which means they won't review the requests until it's past the EOD for me.?

In case anyone from the team is reading this, I'd appreciate as a user if this could be made more clear (i.e., in the instructions on the invite and direct add screens) because otherwise I have no idea what this means or if people are receiving the invite. In my case, I tried to add the same email addresses, but fewer at a time, so now I'm worried we'll be flagged for spam or something.?

Best,
-Michael

An update: everything's been processed, though I don't know if duplicate invites were sent. Regardless, thanks for your time!

Best,
