Station and QSL Manager non-respondents to direct QSL requests

Several QSL managers, and a handful of non-manager stations, operate "online QSL request systems" that allow one to pay for a direct QSL via Paypal. This assures the requester of the QSL that the money has correctly been received by the intended recipient (unlike, for example, when physical money is sent via the international postal system). For the most part, these OQRS exchanges work well. Unfortunately, though, I have found there to be a small number of cases in which the funds, although correctly transferred, have not resulted in the arrival of the corresponding QSL.

Below is a table showing my experience with stations that received the required funds for a direct QSL, as confirmed by a receipt from Paypal, but for which the corresponding card was never received by me. Note that this does not include requests that were sent via the Clublog OQRS, which are the subject of a separate post. The table lists requests made through the end of 2024, and for which the requested card has not been received as of early August, 2025.
