Patreon Declines
Added 2018-08-02 22:21:38 +0000 UTCAloha!
If you're supporting any other creators, you've probably already gotten a notice to this effect, but Patreon is having a large number of declines, apparently from some change they've made which is causing banks to mark your pledge as fraud: https://twitter.com/Patreon/status/1025071287020871680
If your pledge has been declined, please update your card, PayPal or call your bank to confirm the charge is non-fraud. Thanks guys, and sorry for the extra step.
