Samsung.com Pre-orders/Shipping Thread

I think some of not all areas will ship by Monday. Ordering my case tonight on Amazon so I have it when it arrives.
 
Well the pending charge for my Note 10 plus has dropped from my credit card, so, when it pops up again, I will know they are shipping. Mine has expected delivery date of Aug. 23.
 
SO, I pre ordered on the 12th and I noticed that my card was charged right away and the charge hasn't fallen off my account yet. Anyone else have this happen??
 
Good thing I ordered the Note10+ since my Note8 decided to log me out of my Samsung account and wont let me log back in

If you can't log back into your account, you can't factory reset... this will be a problem with trade in
 
Different banks/credit card companies handle holds and pre-authorizations differently.

I went and read up on my bank's preauth info. First pending is to make sure the money is held for the purchase. If the merchant does not finalize the transaction in a certain amount of time, the pending falls off and the available credit goes back up. Once the merchant finalizes the chargea, it pushes straight through. That's exactly what happened with mine. I'm no longer pending and I'm back at the full credit limit available. Never in my life have I been anxious to see a transaction post to my card. Also looking forward to the cash back. 😉
 
I got a call from my credit union, where I have my CC - they noticed "unusual activity" on my card and wanted to verify the charges - one was the 10+ - I sure hope they give Samsung the money - order still shows "Expected Delivery - August 23rd 2019 - so I should be OK.

It is not nice to mess with old people.

Once it drops off they can do another authorization, basically the cycle repeats until they ship when they do an actual charge. I think I posted in one of the threads with a link to target FAQ on how pre-order/authorization works on target and it's similar across all retailers.

This is also the time when few people say their orders magically got cancelled etc, the main reason for that most likely is the reauthorization probably didn't go thru and the order systems automatically cancelled the order.
