Me too. Trump isn’t America. We are. Let’s show our support for Ukraine and show Trump who has the real power. No better way to spend the $$ I didn’t spend today with the economic blackout.

reply

mishadc.bsky.social•69 days ago

Exactly! The only thing to spend our money on right now.

infamousblonde.bsky.social•69 days ago

@concoracredit.bsky.social apparently considers Ukraine, a hostile nation, and will not process my donation.

reply

altcityhall.altgov.info•69 days ago

Wowww…
So which project were you wanting to donate to? I’ll chip in some towards that for you.

reply

infamousblonde.bsky.social•69 days ago

This is so amazing - you’re the 2nd person who has offered to donate on my behalf. I was able to do it finally! I wanted it to go toward defense, but I ended up choosing I think the sciences & education one? I also canceled three credit cards along the way. Ally Mastercard was the one that worked 🙌

reply

altcityhall.altgov.info•69 days ago

Glad you got it to work! I’m a person of my word, so this went to Defence for you.

They keep scam calling my house, 3 to 4 times a day, looking for someone to take the bait. This gives me one more reason not to answer their phone calls.

reply

infamousblonde.bsky.social•69 days ago

Yes, FVK THEM. I canceled the card anyways - suck it @concoracredit.bsky.social

They wanted to prevent my donation, but it went through on another card anyway & I ended up donating more than I originally aimed to…just bc I was so pissed.

reply

rogueresistknitter.bsky.social•69 days ago

I checked them out, out of curiosity. Their fees and interest rates are outrageous.

reply

infamousblonde.bsky.social•69 days ago

Hey, did you have any issues trying to donate? I tried four separate credit cards and they were all declined, I contacted two of the issues cash app and an Old Navy Visa card in both so they do not support payments to Ukraine.

reply

lkllucas.bsky.social•69 days ago

I donated to the organization below and had no issue with my visa. Hope this helps. Thanks for donating!!

molly-n-me.bsky.social•69 days ago

That's kind of infuriating..

reply

infamousblonde.bsky.social•69 days ago

I literally woke up and tried again, I’m not sure what’s going on, but it keeps declining for me. Pissing me off. I’m gonna go to my bank on Monday and just do a straight wire transfer I think.

reply

infamousblonde.bsky.social•69 days ago

I DID IT fvkin finally! Say heyyyy for my Ally Mastercard card 🙌

reply

violetmountain.bsky.social•66 days ago

Just call the card! This is frustrating but regularly happens. I lived & work for US military overseas for 24 years & had to deal with this. They can lift it. Call the # on Ur card.

reply

mishadc.bsky.social•69 days ago

You’re my everyday hero for sticking with this @infamousblonde.bsky.social.

Please pick where you’d like to donate and I’ll chip in $10 on top of my donation yesterday.

reply

violetmountain.bsky.social•66 days ago

Call your Visa card as it’s an automatic fraud protection program. You can call in advance and they will remove it! Then make your donation!

reply

peachmagpie.bsky.social•69 days ago

Discover declined, Visa accepted.

@concoracredit.bsky.social considers Ukraine “a hostile nation”??????

Why do you consider Ukraine a hostile nation but I could donate to Israel every dollar that I have????

reply

mishadc.bsky.social•69 days ago

@infamousblonde.bsky.social I was able to do it with my Discover without issue! I’m sorry to hear it’s not working for you, thank you for trying!

Same. Not much, but what I could.

I felt like it was the only way to tell Ukraine that the American people were not speaking today.

Just a 🤡 in a stolen white house.

violetmountain.bsky.social•66 days ago

I think it’s a great way to show them our vote! I think we need to do it as often as possible. We can all give up something to support their efforts. I’m on fix income & I gave up $. I will keep sending every savings I can!

Trying to donate and keep getting a “Something went wrong” error 🤔

reply

sher1e.bsky.social•69 days ago

Maybe too many people donating at the same time? Keep trying!

reply

altcityhall.altgov.info•69 days ago

Hm… maybe close your browser entirely and try again. I’m no tech support, but that’s what I’d do.

It feels so ridiculous that we've reached a point in history where countries need to CROWDFUND war defense/aid so they aren't taken over by a dictator.
