Please improve leave a message option

My experience was fine, except when trying to leave my message to the beneficiary. I had to recreate and rewrite about 5 times. Each time I was about to finish, as I was rereading my note to the beneficiary, the message box disappeared, and along with it, my message. Super frustrating.

Why ask for birth date

I think it's an excellent service to be able to collect money for a gift to a person from people spread out all over the world. However I don't understand why you should ask for my birth date and year when I am just sending money via a credit card. I don't think that is necessary and appropriate unless I have asked to receive communication from you (which I didn't).

Hello Thomas,
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
For information, Leetchi is a financial service subject to certain obligations.

These obligations include the fact that participation and the creation of a fund are reserved for people of legal age. We are therefore obliged to collect the birth date of participants in order to ensure that they are of age.

More generally, the collection of user data is for legal purposes only and is not subject to any marketing processing.

I wish you a nice day

Such a sloppy site

Two issues: 1. My message to the beneficiary disappeared when I clicked on my name. So I have no idea if it was sent or not. It's insane that it just disappears like that without me finishing. 2. I googled for 30 minutes and can't find an answer to a simple question. If I choose "anonymous", does the beneficiary still see who I am? This is what I want. I don't want everyone else to see my name, but I want the beneficiary to see. Why on earth would you not clarify this simple detail? I'm sure I can't be the only one to wonder about this.
