@AARPTeri , I'm having the same problem. I have no option to turn PM on.

Hi, @RobinM684841, we looked a little closer at your profile settings this morning and resolved the glitch for you. Let me know if you don't receive my test private message. Thanks!

Aha! @RobinM684841 I see what's happening... When I attempted to send you a PM, I can see that you have not enabled that feature. Here's how to enable your Private Messenger Settings (screenshot below): go to My Settings | Preferences | Private Messenger | check "Turn on private messages" | check "Receive email notifications for new private messages" | Save
