Patreon Billing Mess Up

Good Morning everyone. Unfortunately, there was a bit of a screw up on Patreon’s end. See, when I checked it yesterday, I read a big notice at the top of the page that said “if nothing changes billing will resume FEB 1.

I went, “Oh, they finally fixed the thing where you have to click the pause billing option on the day, instead of just extending it automatically until you turn it back on!”

I went to sleep content.


Turns out, they did NOT fix this, and when I woke up, it was to patreon billing people for the first of the month.

I apologise to everybody for the mishap. There is also no Mass refund button, so I have to go in and refund everything manually.

If you are affected and would like a refund just type some variation of “refund please” either here or in DMS and I will get on that ASAP.

Edit: only people who subbed on the first will have been affected.

It’s my surprise Christmas present to you for the great reads.

Shut up and take my money

Fizbandu

So, you're saying they gave it to the Arthor and the Arthor is giving it back? I read something similar to this in a book once. lol If I paid it, you can keep it. I got 4 other people (Nephews and Niece) started on your books. Keep up the great work!

Michael Clack

Keep mine as a token of my appreciation for your exceptional content.

Steven Sather

I'm not quite sure of the situation but if I wasn't supposed to be charged then I suppose here's my name? I hope you have had a pleasant holiday season!

No refund desired hun, consider it a small festive gift. I enjoy your work, and your one of the most sensible writers on RR to not charge outragous rate. - You and the family enjoy the holidays while they last. All the best, Elizabeth.

I was charged on the 2nd, it looks like. I'm cool with a refund but if you want to keep the money i'm not bothered by it.

notarealname

I got charged aswell and I would request a refund. But don't let this mishap get to you, after this the year can only get better and I look forward to the next chapter! (and you inspired me to try writing aswell...)

Nick Brakhage

To the most esteemed Author of the web novel “Beware of Chicken” known as Casualfarmer I have consulted my banking service and it appears that I was erroneously charged a fee. Due do the poor financial situation I currently find myself in I would like to receive these funds back. Yours truly Weird3dud P.S in case you can see my reading history, know that I have not grown bored of your story, I am simply letting it pile up so that I can binge it in one or two sittings.

It's fine dude, it's a good opportunity to give some compliments for your monetization model :) It's so cheap, that I just let it run.. I know you cut it off for the months you are taking break, I can very confidently say, you are the only patreon I know of who do that and I don't think you even need to because of the low price.. Have a good one.
