A couple of week ago I ordered a laptop from Dell. I ordered quite late in the evening, so my bank paused the payment momentarily while they checked with me that it was legit. Confirmed it and the order went through.
My bank account then reflected the money for said laptop being taken in the 'available amount' rather than my actual balance... then a few days later it went back up again.
The laptop has been built and has now been posted, and still no money has left my account for it.
Do I legally have to go to them to tell them if the laptop arrives and I've still not paid, or is it a case that if they don't chase it up it's their problem? I'll just put the money to one side anyway as it's more than likely they'll notice, but I did all of my parts of the transaction correctly so it feels like it's their own fault if they give me a free laptop!
