   If there's a lesson that I'm learning from the struggle Brandon is having trying to give me a year's paid subscription to #DataCamp, it is "don't make it hard for people to give you money".

      In this case, #DataCamp seems not to have considered that one might want to gift a year’s subscription to someone else, so using my personal/ account information and @bthall’s payment 💰 information is likely triggering a fraud alert. The company has not said why the payment hasn’t gone through, but Brandon was able to buy his own subscription without issue.
      
      As I see it, the key is to find the one person in the company that can and will go around the barriers and accept the payment. That gives them some time to suggest the company implements gift subscriptions and some time for the company to do so.
