Buying (preordering) with CC on Origin

[Ser_Bunnylot]

Hullo chaps,

8 days ago I preordered 4 products on Origin in one go. BF4/Premium, Sims 4, Garden Warfare. So that's quite a big purchase. Anyway, there hasn't been any activity on my CC account. There's no money deducted and nothing outstanding authorization.

All the games are in my Origin library and I even had BF4 closed beta access. Got a order confirmation mail too.

Just wondering if this is normal? Does the transaction only go off when the game is released or what?

Edit: btw, I'm with FNB

yeah they wait until release date to deduct it.

Ah oh well Thanks Crzwaco.
