How long before Groups.io sends an email notifying me they have accepted my invite to the YGroup I wish to transfer?


 

I am at step 4 in the transfer process. I have completed steps 1-3

My question is, HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO GET THE EMAIL, and if I don't receive it after that amount of time, what should I do then?

  1. Create your new Groups.io group and upgrade it to premium for a year.
  2. Set up and start the transfer process by clicking the?Set Up New Transfer?button, below. You'll be asked to select your Groups.io group and for the name of your Yahoo Group.
  3. Send an invite?from your Yahoo Group?to?[email protected]
  4. We will accept the invite and then send you an email directing you to make the?[email protected]?member a moderator.
  5. After you have made the?[email protected]?member a moderator, return here, select your?Existing Transfer?transfer, and tell us that you are ready for the transfer to happen.?Your group must be signed up for the Premium Yearly plan.
Thank you for your help,

Vance Stevens
Owner and Moderator

Vance -- This has lately been taking 1-3 days. It is not automated and requires human intervention (solving a "not a bot" CAPTCHA on the Yahoo Groups site).

Lately, Yahoo Groups has also been slow to allow the agent into the group even after the invitation is accepted. So you could run into that, too.?

Meanwhile, you might want to double-check that you have the proper permissions in the Yahoo Group to subsequently promote the agent to a Moderator. If you don't, find someone who can.

and if I don't receive it after that amount of time, what should I do then?
We will cross that bridge in the [unlikely] event that we come to it. Meanwhile, keep checking the status of your transfer (and any relevant comments here in GMF) periodically.
