I was bit worried after giving credit card details, seeing so many mails regarding credit card transaction issues.
My application (HSMP to Tier1 - Main + 2 dep) was sent on 21-01-2010 through Royal Mail special delivery
Application received on Jan 22nd.
Fee not yet deducted.

Update from my side.
My credit card payment was taken yesterday.
I can see my credit limit reduced by £920 (820+2x50)
It is still under pending transactions, but I haven't used my card for any other purpose, so this should be my visa fee.
Waiting for the acknowledgement from HO now.
Cheers,
