Why isn't my U.S. credit card being accepted? |
| The first thing that you should check is that the "Billing Address" you entered into the registration form matches the Mailing Address on your credit card statement. If it doesn't match exactly, then your subscription can not be processed. Second, please be sure your credit card has credit available. If you are still having difficulty registering, please submit a support ticket to The Donnas Support and a representative will assist you further. |

Why isn't my International credit card being accepted? |
| Please note the following regarding international credit card processing: Non-U.S. banks/issuers of credit cards do not support electronic address verification systems (AVS), which are used to help prevent credit card fraud. Authorizations are normally processed manually with a phone call placed by the merchant. The Donnas Support does not make phone calls to obtain authorizations. Additionally, The Donnas support does not accept credit card information directly for processing. Please do not email your credit card information to the Support Team. If you receive repeated error messages regarding verification of your address, please make certain that the address you are entering into the registration form for "Billing Address" is exactly the same as the address where the credit card statements are received. If you are sure that the address you are using is correct, and you are still receiving an error message, please register using the "Mail-In Payment" option, and follow the directions provided. |

What are the $1 dollar "charges" that appear on my credit card statement? |
| Please note that each time you attempt to register, the system will attempt to process your credit card payment. The $1 "charge(s)" are a normal part of the authorization process. The system seeks a $1 authorization to verify that the credit card is valid. This authorization "charge" is only a test, and will be reversed automatically by your credit card company before you receive your next statement. | |

What does it mean when I receive the message "your credit card has been processed recently and we cannot immediately charge it again, please try again in a few minutes"? |
| Please note that the error message "your credit card has been processed recently and we cannot immediately charge it again, please try again in a few minutes" occurs because the system is designed to prevent accidental double billing. However, it is not an indication of the success of the transaction. If your credit card was charged and your registration successful, you will immediately recieve a billing receipt and Donnaholics Welcome Letter via email. If you have not received these emails, then please wait a few minutes and try to register again. You may need to close and reopen your web browser. If you still receive this error message, please submit another support ticket and a representative will assist you further. |
