Why did I not receive my purchased Avira product?

It might happen that during the purchasing process of an Avira product the specified email address contains a misspelling. Therefore, the subsequent attempt to Log In to the automatic created Avira  account fails. Additionally, the customer will also not receive any Avira email information regarding the purchased product and license on his proper email address.

As a result, many customers register again with the proper email address which they thought they have specified during the purchasing process. Thus, the customer owns now two Avira accounts, one with the misspelled email address where the purchasing information and license are stored and another account with the proper email address which does not contain any information regarding his prior purchased product.
