Eternal Vigilance.
About a year ago, I accepted a new credit card offer. It gets paid in full, each month, like t'other one.
This month's statement had an interest charge on it. I phoned to ask why. I was told,
Your payment was late. All payments have to be received by 15th of the month. That's what's written on the statements.
Hhmmmmmmm.
My statement for that month has 18th printed on it.
Please wait while I check.
<long pause>
So it does, I do apologise for that and I'll reverse the interest change for you.
For me, eh??
I wonder how many others who paid on the date stated might've missed that little interest charge snuck on to their statement?
Error or cunning?
Who's to know?
