Anyone who ordered from Verizon...I forget, do they do a $1 authorization when you place the order? There's not one on my card. I ordered from my iPad while lying in bed on Sat night and while my CC# and such is saved from paying my bill, the 3 digit security code is not. I thought I knew it but it turns out I used the security code from my debit card I called this morning and supposedly they updated it for me (the dept that had the ability to do so was closed yesterday), but I'm worried they just updated the saved card info in general, and not on the order itself (if that's possible). I leave town on Fri evening so I'm hoping my screw up doesn't delay my order.
I ordered from Verizon over the phone, since I had some questions the web site didn't make clear, middle morning on the first day of ordering. My bank web site shows a "temporary authorization" for the full purchase amount including "activation fee" and tax. I do not know if Verizon only placed a "temporary authorization," or if it shows this way because the bank takes a few days for charges to go from temporary to completed. My phone has been shipped and is sitting in Memphis.
