Reminder to double check your payment status before the month rolls over! (Patreon)
Content
Heyo! This is a reminder to double check or update your payment method before the month rolls over to avoid problems with declined payments and fraud stuff. Patreon made a BIG fuck-up earlier this month and us creators still have no idea what they did to fix this or how our upcoming paycheck is gonna look. It's a mess!
So, this is my reminder to you to double check this stuff if you haven't already. If you already updated your payment or better yet, called your bank, then I think you'll be okay? But, I truly have no idea.
I'll post again what Patreon says about these issues:
"If a patron reaches out to you about a decline, you can advise them to follow these steps:
- Contact their card issuer to confirm the charge is valid and retry that card
- If the retry does not work, try a different payment method. Patrons can edit their payments in their Settings, under Billing History."
There's also a longer article about this problem here: https://support.patreon.com/hc/en-us/articles/203913799-Retry-my-declining-payment
Anyways, gonna send out one last message to declined/fraud Patrons in hopes the issue gets fixed, but I know some folks just never check their DMs here, so that's why I'm making this post too.
Thanks everyone! Hope you're hanging in there!
