Just curious I only got pre-authorization bill. I am assuming when the phone ships the CC will be billed fully?
 
All CC transaction have to be prea uthorized first, then a few days later the pre-auth should become a charge. So it's totally normal.

Thanks 1st tiem pre ordering I have always played the cat and Mouse game the last few yrs. I didnt want to wait in lines this yr.
 
Actually, it was longer than that for the i4, I don't remember how long, but I know I was already starting to wonder if they were ever going to charge me for it, and then one day BAM! There is was...
 
You being charged or not likely has a lot to do with your bank and how fast transactions show up on your account. I am with Wells Fargo and the charge hit my debit card instantly. :(
 
Credits cards aren't charged until order ships. As others have stated they pre auth the card and usually falls off after a few days
