Unknown charges

For the past few days, there has been a "pending" transaction of .15 on my bank account. Does anybody know what that is?

Hey there.

Have you recently purchased anything from Samsung or perhaps updated any payment options? I recently did both of the following and also had these pending transactions. They never went through and dropped after a few days. It's my understanding that they were to confirm payment methods. If I find more information, I'll be sure to let you know.

Those are usually tester amounts to make sure your credit card/bank account information is correct and in good standing. Since it's only a pending charge it will drop off in 5-7 business days.

Thank you for that response. That's exactly what happened. I added my card to the "wallet".

I did this also but didn't read anything about a charge. Must have been really small print?

I have never had the tester charges when I add a card to the wallet but then I add credit cards, not debit cards. It usually happens with debit cards, not credit cards, as it is a form of verification that the card belongs to an active account.
