Interesting to learn that NatWest (or their "AI" at least) class Patreon as an "adult site".
It, as expected, wasn't any use at all; although the nice Scottish lady I spoke to after their phoneline "AI" had wasted some more of my time actually confirmed that someone somewhere at NatWest has decided not to allow payments to Oracle (ok, maybe not *all* of Oracle, maybe just Dyn.com)
And the best advice they could offer to solve the problem was to have bank account/card from a different bank!
