NOWITSREYNTIME17 Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 (edited) I was able to preorder a PS5 and Spiderman Miles Morales and Sackboy. In the email they sent, they said we would be charged of course but I didnt get a charge but still got a confirmation email. Just wanted to know if everyone that preordered got charged yet or not(the pending charge) and if they think I'm all good with it Edited October 12, 2020 by DaivRules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FilmFanatic Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 I pre-ordered mine from Mighty Ape here in New Zealand and they required a $100 non-refundable deposit due to high demand and limited stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FFATMA Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 I ordered stuff off of both Best Buy and Amazon and I haven't been charged by either site yet. Both stated that I would only get charged when the items shipped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ragtag7 Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 I got a PS5 from Walmart and they immediately charged my card, hoping it sticks. I got the confirmation email asap. Keep in mind though, some retailers can at any moment revoke your purchase if they overestimate orders and can't meet demand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was having trouble with my card details and it charged me like 8 times back and forth with charge and then refund. I only ask because i got an even amount of those(charge and refunds on my account), which means I havent gotten an actual pre-reg charge but I got the confirmation emails Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, my info wasn't wrong, it just gave me an error thats what I meant. They must have charged then got an error and refunded me. I got a security notice from my bank for suspicious activity but before i confirmed it was me, I tried again on the preorder and my order went through. Got the confirmation email but no actual charge on my account, just the error charges and refunds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeadStanley Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 (edited) I got a full charge and then full refund right after it. The email states that I won't be charged until it ships. Edited September 18, 2020 by DeadStanley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd probably contact Sony just to be sure but if they haven't asked you to update your payment information I'd say you're fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TJ_Solo Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 I should read the big, bold fine print better. Quote In order to validate your payment method and reserve the item(s) in your cart we will pre-authorize your credit card for the Estimated Total listed above now. Pre-authorization is not a charge, it is a temporary hold against your credit limit (lasting approx. 1-8 days). We will not charge your credit card until shortly before your item(s) ships. That still doesn't say why I got another pre-invite email and why it let me order another PS5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TJ_Solo Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 (edited) It works up to checkout and the whole charging/reversal thing but doesn't complete the order with an order#.

Took the time to pick up a charging station though since I forgot to pick it up the first time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MatThaRiPP3R84 Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 99% of shops won't charge untill it is shipped. I ordered mine from game. Had 5 items in 1 order and they tried charging me for 5 seperate next day delivery charges. i quizzed em on it and they didn't even answer, danced around the question, so I cancelled the extra controller and charging dock and bought em off amazon via prime.

MatThaRiPP3R84 Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 lol that is extremely odd. maybe you will get yours free due to oversight, that would be hillarious. good luck. after all as much as i love the brand it's currently run by total morons.
