The code can take up to 3 days to show on your bank statment as it goes pending like anyother card payment.

If you received the £1 charge but no code was sent with it then it may be advisable to remove the card and re-add it.

You don't receive 1GBP to confirm your card. You are charged it andnit can take 3 days to show on your card/bank statement as it is a pending transaction on your bank account.

You receive 0.01GBP when you chose to confirm your bank account this is credited via the faster payments service and can take up to 2 hours.

You even underlined the part you got wrong. Charge means we'll take it off you.

Sorry, I missed the word charge. So we're both saying the same thing. Why did you go back to a post I made yesterday and try to correct it with the same info I gave?

Because I ''added'' to the info.

 

The OP actually said they had had the £1 charge but not code was attached.

 

You presumed that they had not had the charge at all and were waiting for it to be sent.

 

Folks often post add on information or different advice on users posts, there is nothing wrong with that, that is the whole point of an 'advice forum'.

 

No one is EVER 100% correct all the time, we are supposed to learn from each other.

 

Yes sometimes i may post an answer and yours is better, so what? I don't get paid for this anymore than you do. I just do my best. If sometimes my answers are abrupt then thats as maybe but you should counter that with the zillions of other helpful posts that I have done.

I don't know if zillions is an actual figure.

As for the missing code. If it's a card charge it can show as debited but the transaction won't show for 3 days because of processing times which is the most common mistake people make with card payments.
