Pending Purchase

Hi, I have purchased subscription to the app, got funds blocked on my card, but Purchase status still shows Pending. How can I solve this problem?

How apps, content, and subscriptions from Apple are billed - https://support.apple.com/HT201359


Used to include this statement but it, and the link referenced, no longer exist.

"Did you see a pending charge from Apple? Depending on the payment method that you use for a purchase, we might obtain preapproval [ https://support.apple.com/kb/HT201292 ] for an amount up to the total price of the bill."


Now it just says, "If you see a pending charge for a small amount. If you update your billing information or add someone to your Family Sharing group, a temporary authorization hold for a small amount might appear on your statement. Authorization holds are removed by your card issuer or financial institution after a short time."
