I set up my ooma telo a few days ago and it works great, but I had to disconnect it because I am fiddling with my computer. Anyways, I just noticed a $10. charge from ooma, what gives, I thought it was free? I opted out of the premier service as soon as I set the thing up....

Never mind, I just did a search and someone posted about a $10. preauth to check your debit card is valid or something...just surprised me, where did I miss this info?

Pre-auth shouldn't show up as a charge. It will affect available credit though.

Usually, I see a pre-auth for just $1.00 , and it just goes away later after the real charge shown up. It may last a few days tho, since many merchands run thing in batches.

I can confirm that on my second Telo i had a pre-auth of $10 after entering my card info - it disapeared after about 4 days.
