Estimate your Librem 5 shipping

Well, thatā€™s not a proof of payment. But because I have nothing else, I submitted this.
Iā€™m afraid this is just as good as the enclosed invoice/delivery note

possibly, customs compared the price on the enclosed invoice with the current price! AGAIN no clue!

Hi adamk,

look for your E-Mail back in the past. After your Order you got one E-Mail with the total amount and the Bank Code Number. And days later you got a E-Mail like ā€œYour Purism order receipt from ā€¦ā€

This should be enough proof of payment.

Regards

Christal

My email address and credit card have changed over the last 4 years! I found a screenshot of the order process in 2019 and forwarded it also to customs.

support helped me by sending me the same documents that where rejected by customs.
i am in contact with support Mladen Pejaković.

uhhh,

i have found the word ā€œWIRECARDā€ in your attached documents.
i checked address confirmation mail and company is Wirecard. i over-
viewed it!

i was employed by Wirecard and used to have my shipment there.

after Wirecardā€™s bankruptcy in 2020 i have changed online billing and
shipping address to my personal address.

pls see attachted screenshot
of https://shop.puri.sm/my-account/edit-address/
there is no wirecard since 2020!

i think wirecard has triggered the authorities!

please send my a personal invoice, not a commercial/businesses, one!

no response so far!

@adamk I had the same issue as you, but fortunately, my previous bank sent me via email my account activity reports as a PDF every month, so I found the report from month when I purchased Librem 5 and used that as a payment proof for customs.
Do you have something like that maybe?

They havenā€™t told you what issue exactly theyā€™re having with the enclosed invoice.
Customs officials are people, too. Sometimes they make mistakes but whenever I had an issue, they were happy to help.
Once, they even accepted a printout of a year-old SMS thread I handed them as proof of purchase!
Iā€™m sure youā€™ll be absolutely fine. Thereā€™s no reason to be afraid.

@narezina Actually, it was ā€œonlyā€ an upgrade to Visa Gold that came with a new account number. The issuing institute remained the same. Should be possible to receive past reports, of course for a fee. Will do that if the evidence presented is not sufficient for customs. i can download reports for the past 3 months what i probably should do!

@Lliure true. should be just a matter of time when i can hold the L5 in my hands. Current case status is: ā€œin progressā€. fingers crossed.

Librem 5 has currently got a hopeful lead time for delivery (about a year). Meanwhile some Librems start resurfacing on ebay and the like, certainly a faster way to get hold of this device!
