Hello, I need help understanding an issue with the SBB Mobile app and a payment made with my Revolut card. Yesterday, I purchased a ZVV Single Ticket (Zürich Flughafen → Zürich Oerlikerhus) which cost CHF 7.
I also checked my EasyRide journeys, and it shows a provisional price of CHF 12, which makes sense. However, on my Revolut account I see a pending charge of CHF 96.60 from SBB. Revolut shows the transaction as “Pending” and says that if the merchant does not complete the transaction, the amount will automatically be released on 11 December. In the SBB Mobile app: Under Valid tickets, nothing appears. Under Expired tickets, only the CHF 7 ticket shows. Under EasyRide → Past journeys, it displays “Provisional price: CHF 12”. So I’m confused why a much higher amount has been pre-authorized. Can someone please confirm: Is this high amount a standard pre-authorization from EasyRide? Will the final charged amount be adjusted to the actual journey (CHF 12)? Should I expect the CHF 96.60 to be automatically released if SBB does not finalize it? Thank you in advance!
