in Credit cards
I bought a £135 buggy of mothercare online at the weekend. They pre authorised £1 and then the last few days I have had £136 pending transaction. The buggy came yesteday and now it has fallen of my card. No pedning transactions?!? Checked the internet and telephone service both say I have no pending transactions and extra funds avaiable.:confused:

    I've had similar experiences a few times with different cards. The transaction always showed up within a couple of days despite the apparent lack of any pending authorizations.

    Yep, that's how it was with me. Pending authorizations disappeared, confirmed transactions took days to appear afterwards.
