How long does account verification normally take?

[logic404]

I'm a Vortech reseller, and yesterday I signed up for a new Unix hosting account, in addition to my reseller account.

When I signed up, the email I got said:
"We will activate your account as soon as we verify your billing information."

How long does this process normally take? Why do they need to re-verify it when I used the exact same card to pay my yearly reseller bill a few weeks ago?

I don't think the billing department works on weekends so it will probably be on monday. They can't know it is the same card untill they look at it, nor can they know you have another account unless you tell them... So relax and enjoy your weekend!

Lol, touche. The thing is I'm coming up on Sunday night here, so my "weekend" is over a fair bit before Vortech's is.

Oh well - will teach me to try to work on weekends and we can just make this a long one, ha ha!
