Hi,
I noticed that CIO charged my credit card on Feb 24, 2010 but I did not receive any NOA (Notice of Assessment) or acknowledgement from them either by email or regular mail. It has been almost 3 weeks now since they charge the card so should I try to contact them to find out if they sent me email or not.
Can anybody have any idea about this? How long it takes for them to send the receipt
Thanks
