David Lowe KVIE President and General Manager I received an email stating my donation for this month couldn t be processed. Why didn t it process? - BG in Elk Grove There are a variety of reasons why a charge card may not work. One recent example is that the billing address for the card wasn t changed after the member moved. We charged the card based on the new address and the bank had the old address so they rejected the charge. Call member services at 916-641-3500 to update any payment method and, thank you for your support. Have a question or comment for KVIE?
