I received an email that I could not be charged and told me to fix it on the website. Actually there was a link inside, if you wanted to pay with giropay (like I did for the 100 EUR). Clicked the link, followed the instruction and money got out.
The email arrived today at 18:38 UTC+1 (Paris, Berlin).
Just got the notification that my card has been charged! Never been more happy to see $2200 taken out of my bank account.
Ditto, no email from Framework. I checked my bank app and saw the pending charge there.
Got charged too, shipping destination is Germany
Looks like I got charged this morning, too. DIY, American shipping address, no stuff like linux keyboard or anything to slow it down. With luck, I’m hoping it hits my doorstep before next Thursday. I’d really like to get her built and fired up!
No email, but in addition to the credit card notification my charge also shows up in the “Payment History” section of the Framework order page.
I ordered the Linux keyboard, I don’t believe it’ll hold my order back. I guess we’ll see. I’ve already arranged to show it off to the IT help desk at my school 
.
Linux keyboard caused delays for the Batch 1 orders but that issue is resolved.
I have also had my credit card card, listed as pending.
Oh yep, charged. Cause of personal stuff, I didn’t see the charge but remaining amount due in account summary is a heap of goose eggs! I can’t believe that after nearly 9 months of waiting we finally have these computers nearly in our fingers.
Same here, it is US bound. CHARGEd!
For those who care, my configuration is:

I already bought all of the ports Framework offers last year, these will be spares. I’ll replace worn out ports as needed in the future.
Here’s the stats so far. I’m wondering how fast it ships for those in the US. It appears to be fast, I’m located in Utah, so we’ll see how fast it ships.

Card charged too, I just checked from the orders on the frame.work site. My laptop sleeve just arrived so I’m officially ready!
Just notice, my card got charged as well.
May I ask why the WiFi card? I’ve seen a few people mention swapping this and I’m curious to understand the benefits.
Some people are trying Wi-Fi 7 cards. That’s too new for me. I’ll wait for it to mature. I had issues with Wi-Fi 6 and Linux when it was new. I watched a YouTube video where the host was disappointed in mediatek. I’m not sure what makes it then a bad company or product.
I have heard of and seen a lot of people swapping to the Intel Ax210 6E card i am plaqnning on going for the Qualcomm NCM865 ( Amazon.com: MSI Herald-BE NCM865 WI-FI 7 (Wi-Fi 7, 802.11BE, Bluetooth 5.4, PCIe, Multi-Link Operation Technology, External Antenna) : Electronics
Thanks for clarifying. Yep the Intel AX210 caused me a lot of grief on Linux. It might be a problem with WPA3 on my home network. I’m waiting for my Framework 16, if it connects without issues, then it’s probably the Intel card on Linux. What made you choose Qualcomm? I have a hard time finding anything other than Intel and mediatek.
Thanks everyone for the info. I just wanted to make sure it wasn’t something I had to worry about.
