I am struggling to get Quickbooks Self employed to convert my emailed receipts to transactions. I sent an email with a receipt attached in .pdf format from my verified email address to [email address removed], but nothing happens. I ticked the box requesting a return email when it was processed, but 24 hours later nothing has happened.
I'm wondering whether it might be due to the fact I changed my company name and email address after I opened the account. I have verified the new email address, so it should work, but it doesn't.
Can anyone help?

Generally, after you have successfully set up the email address to forward receipts from and performed the troubleshooting steps provided by @RenjolynC, this should work the way it used to be. Since you're still getting the same error message, I'd recommend contacting our Customer Care Support. They can pull up you're account, securely, and create a case or ticket ID to be submitted to our engineers for further investigation about this unexpected behavior.

Hi there, Ivybridgepodiatry.
Thanks for visiting QuickBooks Community. I appreciate you for sharing detailed information about the verified email address.
When setting up or sending email receipts to QuickBooks so it automatically records them, you'll have to make sure that you're using a registered email for it to work. Since you've confirmed you have verified the new email address, I suggest ensuring that you set up receipt forwarding correctly.
Here's how:
For additional information on how to perform the process and to ensure that you record it accurately, you can click this article: Forward receipt images to QuickBooks Self-Employed.
If the issue continues to occur, I reccomend contacting our QuickBooks Self Employed. They have the tools to pull up your account to check the forwarding receipts set up so they can investigate the cause of the problem.
Please refer to this article to view information on how you can categorise the transactions to puts your entries on the correct account: Categorise transactions in QuickBooks Self-Employed. This is to make sure that your income and expenses organises properly so you know what areas of your self-employed business have the biggest impact.
Let me know if you have additional questions or anything else that I can help you with. I appreciate you for bringing up your concern, have a safe and relaxing weekend ahead.
Thank you for your detailed answer to my question. Unfortunately I tried all that before I posted the question. The email just seems to be ignored. No acknowledgement email and no transaction created. It is not rejected as undeliverable either.
How do I get personalised 1 to 1 support? All I can find is this community or an automated chat bot. Is that because it is Sunday? Is the chat manned during office hours?
Kind regards,

I have a similar problem
My email address is verified and set up correctly in receipt forwarding. When I send a receipt, I get a response from QBSE that says:
"Your receipt wasn’t received because it was sent from an email that’s not registered for receipt forwarding.
Make sure you’re sending receipts from the email you used to create your QuickBooks account. To find out which email is registered, or to check if receipt forwarding is set up, sign in."
I've tried all the solutions here and more from other boards, but none of them work. The problem is that QBSE is not recognising the verified email address as being the one to send things from.
