I sent the contract, text and cover by email on Monday 6 October. Today is Thursday 9th October. I have not receieved an acknowledgement that it has been received.

I am therefore unsure whether there is a long queue waiting to be dealt with or whether the email never arrived. Communications are not permitted. Should I panic yet or have others experienced similar timescales?

I would very much appreciate any advice.

Hi joanna

You'll receive an email with the next 1 to 2 working days. Legend are setting up an immediate response mechanism to acknowledge received files which will be in place very early next week. This will include a comprehensive list of the most commonly asked FAQs we've received so far, with details of how to query further if required.
