近日CheckOut(Gbuy)上线,做为GFans怎么能不试用?于是,于前日进行了注册,其中要填入信用卡信息,对于Google的信任,我没有任何怀疑,便写了十分详细的资料!于第二日,邮件中收到一封来自信用卡的消费记录,是1美元!毫无疑问,这定是google扣除的,因为我从未进行任何外币消费!便给Google的CheckOut小组写了封邮件询问此事!原来仅是做帐户确认用,1-14天内便会退还!邮件原文如下:
Hello Yueda,

The charges pending from Google are actually pending authorization requests between our billing system and your credit card-issuing bank.

Authorizations are the initial communication between our billing system and the bank's billing system to ensure that the necessary funds are within your account before the amount is deducted. Google will not bill an account until we receive an approved authorization from the bank.

When you check your bank account, payment authorizations will often be listed as pending. These charges might remain in your account anywhere between 1-14 business days, depending on the bank.

Sincerely,

Carolyn
The Google Checkout Team
