Patreon Is Experiencing Significant Processing Delays

Added 2019-02-03 22:41:01 +0000 UTC

Just in case you aren't aware of it, I wanted to let you all know that things are quiet at the moment because Patreon is having some sort of processing issue and even though it's well into the 3rd of the month, most people still haven't been charged for February. Right now, I have 213 patrons and only 87 have been billed (so like 40% of patrons). On a normal month everyone would have been billed and I'd have already claimed my payout.

** UPDATE - 12 hours after my post, my patrons are 60% billed, 40% still pending.

So, we're all just sitting here twiddling our thumbs waiting for them to pull theirs out of their ass and do the one thing that they actually do for us each month - collect our payments.

I have some new content ready to post as soon as they fix their issues - I just would rather wait and post it when all my patrons can access my page, because right now, if you aren't one of the lucky 40% who have processed already, you are locked out :(

Hang in there guys! Wish I could say this is an isolated incident, but honestly who knows anymore. I'm trying to remain positive, but Patreon is earning themselves a pretty shaky reputation the longer this sort of crap goes on.
