Can anyone correct this writing for me

Both of May and me did not receive your bills for Oct swimming course and the locker charges. Maybe it was transferring error to to my private mailbox.

When speaking about yourself and another person, leave the other person out and you can see if "I' or "me" should be used. You would say "I" did not receive a bill, rather than "me". In negative sentences you need to use "neither" rather than "both" I have rewritten your phrase.

  • When speaking about yourself and another person, leave the other person out and you can see if "I' or "me" should be used.
  • You would say "I" did not receive a bill, rather than "me".
  • In negative sentences you need to use "neither" rather than "both" I have rewritten your phrase.
  • I hope this retains your indented meaning.
  • Neither May nor I received our bills from you for the October swimming course and locker charges.
