If you've experienced issues with your donation or subscription and haven't received your badge, please send me a private message with your PayPal email. I'll manually activate your badge. My apologies for any inconvenience – this is due to PayPal confusing the two IPN listeners we use, with one unable to process transactions meant for the other. Thank you for your patience and understanding as we address this.

Dear Forum Family,

To address recent issues processing PayPal donations, I have set up a new subscription account. This aims to fix PayPal incorrectly routing payments to the wrong IPN listeners, which has complicated our payment processing This adjustment should hopefully streamline transactions moving forward.

I ask those who are able to help me test the system by making a donation and/or starting a subscription. This will help test and verify the new system. For anyone contemplating a subscription, now is an ideal time to provide vital support.

Even if this totally fixes the payment processing issues, Susan's Place is facing serious financial peril. I was forced to cancel all active subscriptions in January, due to the server restoration, adding in the ongoing payment processing issues, we face a $1,600 deficit. This shortfall critically threatens our important work. As things stand, I will not be able to afford to pay March's bills.  I really need your help!

Throughout our history, your unwavering support has been the foundation enabling our shared mission and community. But now, to weather this storm, I desperately need your help.

At this crucial juncture, your generosity is more vital than ever. Whether donating, subscribing, or spreading our mission, every contribution helps immensely.

We stand at a crossroads, with our collective light at risk of fading. Yet I believe together we can rekindle our fire and raise our voices once more. Our community is strongest when united as one.

I urge you to join me in reaffirming our shared dedication. Safeguarding our future begins today. Your continued solidarity will inspire hope in us all.

With my deep appreciation,

Hi Susan,

Just checking that you are getting my Silver donations each month.
My PayPal email address is P....G...@gmail.com and the donation goes to sptrdonations@gmail.com

Regards,
Paprika <cassie.thorne@protonmail.com>

It looks like recurring payments setup with paypal are unaffected. Thank you Paprika

What do the badge look like? I did a 10 dollar donation once. Didn't use paypal as I don't have the paypal account but I used the credit card option for it.

It takes a little bit to get it processed. I have tagged our Admin so she will get you hooked up with a donor's badge.

Thank you for your support!

I have tagged Danielle so she can look for your donation with the information you posted above. It is not an automatic process, she must do it manually. Once verified, you will get one. Thank you!
