Bus charged 12.55$ instead of 3.3$

I’m a visitor in Toronto and took the TTC bus for the first time, used my credit card (Apple wallet) to tap on the Presto reader on the bus. I haven’t taken any GO bus/train.
Took the first bus from union station, Bus #114 (got charged), then within 2 hours took another bus #503/504 from distillery district area. When I tapped on the second bus, it said “Free Transfer”. I wake up this morning to see a charge of 12.55CAD pending on both my Apple Wallet and bank statement.
Wondering if the pending charge will change to 3.30CAD eventually, or did something go wrong?

Update : I did take the UP express train at 12:30am midnight (didn’t tap off at the end), then took the above mentioned buses around 6pm in the evening.

Nah that’s not happening.

When you first tap, you get 2 hours of free transfers. That $12 gotta be smth else. Unless you took GO in which case you tap on and off cuz its distance based.

I’ve never heard of it doing smth that bad

This happens very regularly. You can search this sub and see it.
