Mass of Declined Pledges

GravityJack

Happened to me but I got some alerts and reapproved it. C'mon Patreon get it together

Hurlelune

I got a call from my bank, asking if they should carry out the invoice and I told 'em that everything should be proceeded as expected.

Padishah

Yeah I got a weird email that my card was declined, but immediately switched things to paypal and that seems to be doing fine

Millionaire Stock Investor

I think it's been corrected. thanks. pjd

Hurlelune

It seems that even though I received an email from Patreon about the processing issue, the processing took place anyway as my receipt about the August payment indicates so.

ryan lewis

ok now it is out. i have been having trouble pledging and now I now why

KipFox

I’m surprised BOA didn’t flip out on me when that happened xD all good here and thanks for the heads up!

Meesh

I am supremely lucky people like my porn enough to pay for it, 100%. I appreciate the support <3

Teaf Sochi

That was insanely frustrating. I lost access to debit card entirely while I discovered my credit union has 3 tiers of support. Whatever, we got through it. You're lucky I like porn lmao. Stupid Patreon.

tredain

I was fortunate, my bank didn't decline the transaction, merely put a hold on it until I gave the yea or nay, so I seem to be full up on my pledges this month. But yeah what a pain in the butt.

Richard Awesome

I was wondering why it got declined. I switched it to Paypal to avoid future issues. Thanks for the heads up!

Renaissance Wolf

Patreon has certainly caused some confusion. Had to call my credit company and them I approve of giving money to furry artists lol

Justin Cardinal Schubert

I got charged I payed out $256.00CND in Patreon Donations. this quarter

Tio Takurua

Strange; mine is paid through my credit card but all appears to be in the clear. Guess I'm lucky.

Yup use PayPal, my pledge got through with no mayor problem.

Rickalator98

I transferred all my pledges to my PayPal account and all is good in the hood

Vaska

Yup same here. Patreon should make people use it so things like this dont happen again

Alex

PayPal does not seem to have problems with this xP

Star Ringer

Tell people to switch their pledges to Paypal if they can! Even though I told my bank I authorized the transaction, it still bounced when I retried my pledges. I transferred them over to use Paypal (which is surprisingly easy to do) and everything went through just fine.

marm

350 patrons lost, wow, well (terminator voice) they will be back

Meesh

I can only surmise that they make changes that they think will go off without a hitch... and then stuff like this happens. No reason to warn if you're confident things will go smoothly. But I don't work in their offices, so can't be sure.

Meesh

I can't tell if it's a relief or irritating that this might just be an internal Patreon screw-up, lol.

Meesh

I appreciate that! There is always a dip in pledges during the beginning of the month, but this level of drop-off is egregious and definitely an anomaly.

Duffin

Geez...I use PayPal, luckily, but why is Patreon just doing things without making sure it's okay first lately?

I mean for me it's because I lost money in my account lol. But once I'm back on my feet I'll definitely keep supporting my favorite artist.

Omi and Lucas

I called my credit card companies and they said there were no issues, and didn't know why it was still being declined. I've tried changing my payment method 3 times, and it still won't go through :( I suspect some of us will have to wait while this cools down and Patreon figures out their shit, and hopefully they give us all a chance to still make our pledges for the month!
