> We use your contact information and credit/debit card information for account setup and identity verification. Oracle may periodically check the validity of your card, resulting in a temporary “authorization” hold. These holds are removed by your bank, typically within three to five days, and do not result in actual charges to your account

Is there any provider who doesnt do this? Why cannot they be content with prepaid charges? This is a real deal breaker for me as i dont trust them.


I don't know if your bank has this option, nut in my country we can generate virtual cards with a set limit. I often create them with an 1 euro limit just for verification. There is zero risk.
