It looks like you have the radio button for "personal" checked. Change that to "business" and see if that works for you.

When you finally learn that a person's behavior has more to do with their internal struggle than it ever did with you, you learn grace.

The only options there are:
1. Click a previous recipient (names are given) versus click add a new recipient. I clicked add a new recipient.
2. Send by:
Mobile number
Email address
Wells Fargo account
And I chose email address.
I then typed in debtfreefanatics@gmail.com in the email address field. I clicked on next. I was alerted to fill in First Name and Last Name. I typed in debtfreefanatics@gmail.com in the first name field since that is the instruction (given below) if sending money to a business (which DFF isn't as far as I know but I didn't know what else to do) - and that wasn't accepted.

Can you send or pm me your email? Then I think can request money without putting my full name out on the web

I just made the transaction, so you should receive an email asking you to confirm.

Ok, that was pretty painless to go through
it did say it will take a few days to post to our account.

Did you have information I don't or did you do something I didn't? I want to figure out why it isn't working for me when I think I'm doing it right.

Gertie sent me a PM with her name so I could complete the transaction.

I tried to register for Zelle. But when it said "next" and I pushed Next, it logged me out.
Oh well. This is for my March budget anyway. I'll try next week.
Sometimes you just have to do what feels right with your money instead of what is "optimal". Too many focus on optimal outcomes, when good enough is good enough. (Thanks to Retired @ 50)

I stopped at the bank today to ask about Zelle. They said if I don't give them a cell phone number, I can't use Zelle through them. They said Zelle works by cell phone numbers.
Do I have a cell? Yes. Do I give out the number? No. I give out my landline. The bank has my landline.
The bank said I can download the Zelle app and that Zelle won't spam me if I enter my cell in the app.
I know I'm being stubborn about giving the bank my cell, but they do marketing calls from time to time and that's what the landline is for.
So what do you think? Am I safe from spam calls and thieves if I download the app?
If I download it, can I delete it later?
I've donated by Pay Pal in the past but if Gertie is phasing it out.....it feels like I'm sabotaging her efforts to use Pay Pal. (But not saying I won't use Pay Pal.)
Advice?
