Spotsaas Editor’s POV

Patreon is a membership and monetization platform built for creators who want predictable, recurring income directly from their audience. It works especially well for YouTubers, podcasters, artists, writers, and educators offering exclusive content, early access, or community perks.

Removes Legitimate Users And Help Email Leads Nowhere

Instantly after signing up, I get an automated email that my account "has been suspended and is pending removal for suspicious activity" along with an email address to their "Trust and Safety" department that when followed is "Unable to connect". Apparently the link goes nowhere. I am unable to support my creator, or even engage in any activity, or even contact Patreon for help. What an awful website, completely fails in all aspects.

However if Patreon cancels your account they have initiated withdrawal from the agreement you signed (by using their service) and they have no rights to use or store your material. When ...

They are STEALERS

I had been a patreon for a creator and it has been a year since I cannot login to my account. They keep charging my credit card, and even though I open tickets, noone helps... The system wont allow me to login but it charges me! They basically steal from me for over a year now!
