3 hours after ordering: * PayPal has debited my account, but no order confirmation from JetBrains and no license key * my credit card has been charged as well, I have an order confirmation from JetBrains but no license key * I have been able to submit a request to sales, but that was when I thought that only the PayPal order had gone through Robert, in the end I'll tell sales (if and when they get back to me) that In…

The license key can come in minutes and up to 2 business days later. If you have been billed you will get the keys. Again, send me your details and I will make sure we get you sorted.

2 days? I'm curious why software companies still use Digital River. As a customer I've run into issues with about half the orders I've placed through DR subsidiaries.

We're thrilled that you've come all the way here to buy our products! Thank you! However, we did not expect the load on our servers would be this high. We are working hard right now to fix the problem. Please be patient and come back in a couple of hours. There's still time... -The JetBrains Team Oh alright.

I was actually able to successfully purchase my upgrade. However, I have yet to receive my new license code and it's been about an hour.

Same here, haven't received any form of acknowledgement.

The emails for these are backing up. You can receive it in minutes and in some cases up to 2 business days. Please hold tight. If you purchase was made you will get your license key. If you want to use it now you can download the fully functional trial and enter your license when you receive it. You may also what to check to make sure it wasn't flagged as spam.

Will do thank you!

From what I know 2 days is on the extreme side but stated in the delivery policy. Should be much quicker albeit some delay due to the volume of orders.

The 'buy' part of their site is still down. Sounds like a perfect use case for the cloud...

we're still working hard on getting things running smoothly. thank you for your patience.

Maybe reassuring folks that the 24 hour counter will only start once the site is functioning again would go a long way towards stopping folks from hitting F5 so much...

All their server issues must mean they are dealing with unprecedented demand. It makes me wonder: When demand is THIS intense for a 75% off sale, you think it'd mean a more optimal "normal" price point would be at 25-50% off your current normal prices, wouldn't you?

um no; we all just want to get in on this before the end of days. Who doesn't want to go out with their favorite JetBrains product?!

you can certainly expect fairness. If you are unable to purchase due to the store being down it is fair to expect an extension.
