That annoys me on lots of US-based websites. ä, ö, ü etc. seem to be well supported, but my name contains a rarer character/accent combination(still not that rare and very common in lots of places) and I frequently have the issue that american websites tell me that my name is invalid.
European websites never bother me about it, of course :)
Doesn't bother me that much but I've had moments where a service told me that "Your name MUST match the name on your ID", only to then complain that I can't use a certain character. Which is present on my ID. Well.
- Symbiote 3y agoFortunately it's only my address, but "København Ø" fails even on websites in Europe sometimes. The postman understands "Kbenhavn", "K~#benhavn >&" and so on. Very occasionally some address verification thing can't match my address, as one side or the other within their system is corrupting it.
