Just want to check if anyone else has experienced the following:

I completed a purchase at a local Shell garage after loading offer. I had no congratulations message nor confirmation of transaction within the Foursquare app. I was beginning to wonder whether this transaction had tracked correctly however the £15 has posted to my credit card account after 9 days.

Has anyone else experienced this? The reason I ask is that I will obviously be carrying out other transactions and I'm the sort who likes to know that everything has worked out! I have been into H of F today and again I have failed to get a congratulations message or have a notification of the transaction (same at Starbucks). Should I generally be concerned or do these transactions sort themselves out in the end?
