@[email protected] donating with PayPal bypassed this for me, though idk if you can get them to stop using it now that it's in their system..

@[email protected] thing is all my other cards have my currect/updated name. I use this one exclusively for online stuff because capital one was being a bitch about updating my name. Figured the whole "name" field meant something. But apparently it doesn't and they just take it from the credit card instead.
I'm probably more pissed than I should be. But don't fucking have a name field if you're going to ignore it. -

given that this feels like a pretty fixable issue I'm just going to tag
@[email protected] as perhaps nobody at Wikimedia even knows this is a problem? (not expecting them to fix it. just that they probably know someone who would care about problems that would stop people from wanting to donate) -

@eri @julia @phoenix_fairy bleh, that sucks, sorry I've passed on some nonspecific feedback to the fundraising folx (to raise awareness that this can happen, and that it shouldn't..), and asked for the best contact method if you wanted to get this resolved (totally understand if you don't want the hassle of doing that though)

@eri @julia @phoenix_fairy (ah sorry, didn't realise the mention broke in the first reply.. I edited it but I have no idea if that would trigger a mention, so ping)
