    I have the impression that you've modified this form before. Can you confirm if you've done this? Such as replacing the fields with a new one? Your 2015 submissions are blank, up until February 17, 2016. Please note that removing a field will also delete its data. I hope you didn't do this. Otherwise, we can forward this thread to our developers for them to check further.

    Hi:

    i don't remember if someone modified the form. I have a copy of 2015 submissions, with no empty fields. 

    I hope the developers can check it.

    I checked your form's revision history and found out that you have deleted the full name field on February 18 this year. Please take note that deleting a field also deletes its existing submissions data. This is also shown on a dialog box when you attempt to delete a field.

    Unfortunately, I'm afraid there's no way to recover the deleted data anymore. You may however, find them on the submissions you received on email.
