[Investigating] The Credit Card Updater service has been experiencing problems since since February 11, 2021 and first identified on March 23. Eligible cards on file for club members (active and on hold clubs) have not being updated since then for WineDirect Payments customers.
Credit Card Updater checks credit cards on file for club members on a 40 day interval based on when the last check was performed on the card and updates the account if new card information is available.
The WineDirect development Team is working with USAePay, our integrated gateway partner, to resolve this issue. An update will be provided as soon as we identify the issue.
Thanks for your patience and we hope to share some more positive news soon.

[Monitoring] Fixes to the credit card updater process were applied this morning and updates are now starting to be applied to accounts for which new card information is available.
This catchup update process is still ongoing and some users may still see a delay before all accounts are updated.
We are continuing to monitor and will marked this issue as resolved once we have confirmed the latest batch of available updates has been applied to all accounts.

[Investigating] We are seeing positive signs so far from the fixes to the credit card updater process but we're not out of the woods just yet.
Gateway updates are being processed but an issue is preventing the updater tool from adjusting the customer's account and posting the admin-facing customer notes that record the updates.
We're working hard to get this rectified quickly and will provide an update as soon as possible. Users will not incur additional charges until this issue is rectified.
Thanks for your continued patience.

[Investigating] Our Engineers have identified some errors during the processing of credit card updaters that we believe could be related to this issue. We are attempting to leverage them to identify the issue.

[Investigating] Only the Credit Card Updater tool is impacted -all other gateway-related services and transaction processing are unaffected and operating normally.
Credit card updates are being processed in WineDirect but an issue is preventing the updater tool from adjusting the customer's account and posting the admin-facing customer notes that record the updates.
This appears to be due to formatting issues in the recent update file we receive from USAePay. We are still awaiting critical information from USAePay to confirm this and resolve any remaining issues.
We sincerely apologize to all affected customers and will continue to post additional follow-ups on our status page.

[Monitoring] As of 4/28 Credit Cards are being updated for WineDirect Payments customers. We are continuing to monitor this process to ensure everything is working.
May 4, 2021 17:48 PDT
[Monitoring] We are confident that this issue is permanently resolved but continue to monitor the tool task that is still catching up on the backlog of updates that were delayed from USAePay.
We anticipate this process will be complete by the end of this week and will post a final update as well as mark this incident as resolved as soon as we confirm it fully completes.
