I have credit card auto-filling enabled and several credit cards active. However, most of the time, when I go to use the autofill, though the card choices appear and I am able to select one, and it usually temporarily shows the fields to be filled, when the menu closes, the auto-fills are gone! It's worse than not having autofill at all. This seems to happen the majority of sites where I try to use it.

When I click to fill in a Credit Card field to pay for something, my correct card info appears momentarily, but then disappears. To execute a payment, I am forced to manually fill in all required information. I made sure the "save autofill" box was properly checked in the Settings, and it was. Names, addressed, etc. are all filled in properly; only credit card info is not.

I use Firefox for Linux on a Lenovo ideacentre desk top and on an Android mobile (Google Pixel). I live in the UK. I've saved my debit card details on both devices and autofill works perfectly on my phone but won't work on the PC. I've checked settings multiple times and everything seems to be properly set. I've just checked (via about:config) that my regions supports autofill and it does. When I try to use autofill, my card details appear in a box but when I click on the card number to fill the details, nothing happens! I've tried disabling the extensions I normally use on the desk top (Privacy Badger and ClearURLs) but that didn't resolve the problem. Any help would be appreciated.

When a site asks for my address, I try to choose one from the drop-down menu of addresses offered, but it firstly prints my address in the address window and then, when I press enter or do anything whatever, it deletes everything in the address window. Worse than that, if I try to ignore the dropdown list offered, and try to type in my own address, it deletes it.

This behaviour continues, no matter what I try to do do trick it into either (a) filling in my address, or (b) using the offered addresses in the drop-down menu. I.e. there is nothing I can do to ever get an address to stay in the address window and give me a fully filled out form - the address window always ends up empty.

I've tried to alter the settings, telling it to ignore the automatic filling in and remembering of addresses, but I can't turn this address-killer feature off.

Yes, it's made filling in forms on line impossible, since it keeps making the address-window empty
