I have sent people credits a couple of times over the last couple of weeks and every time I do I get an error message.

That's been happening to me also.  But be sure to check your credit registry, because even though you get an error message the transaction is usually successful.

I have not seen that error message at all. I have been transferring credits weekly.

I don't get an error message, it just takes me to a random screen. It would be nice to get a little confirmation message instead.
