Did you just come up with Debt Free and Fanatics for the first and last name yourself? Yes. I felt pretty confident that with the email address linked to it, the money was going to the correct place. When I submitted it told me that the acct. was linked to a name that started with a G. and asked me if I wanted to continue and I chose to do so.
Do you know that the funds you sent were received? Yes, thanks to Gertie's post

Can someone post screen shot of it?

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.

Getting debt free
Well, it seems like it requires a name but it doesn’t really matter what name you use.

Coasting towards the finish line
My bank supports Zelle, and transactions get sent from within the banking app on my phone; no debit card used. My screen did not look quite like Chuck's, but that might also be the difference between iOS and Android. Anyway, I think I chose Debt Free as the first name and Fanatics as the last name. I did not say it was a business. Worked like a champ.
I had been pronouncing it ZELL-ee, but apparently, it is just Zell. Not sure why they added the e at the end. Anyway, it is a product owned by Bank of America, BB&T (now Truist), Capital One, JPMorgan Chase, PNC Bank, U.S. Bank and Wells Fargo. It is likely available within the app for each of these banks. Probably more, too.

I used the Zelle feature via my Schwab app for the record (from an iPhone, so iOS).

Paypal would only show completed transactions so if something was sent today it might not have "completed" yet.
Assuming I am the V?
