Long story short I always pay off my Credit Card in full. Last month the amount was over the max transferable in one transaction by my bank - so I made the Max payment early in the month and then I paid the balance plus extra (less than €500) to keep the next bill down on Jan 21st ... as it turns out I missed the deadline of January 20th (I mixed up dates) so I have been charged a whopper on interest.
I called Avantcard there and they tell me that, even if I pay the full amount on this coming bill I am still going to be charged interest on my next bill as I must have "2 consecutive months" clear .... has anyone any experience / advice on this please? This is a first for me.
I did ask if there was any way they could waive the interest as the most of the bill had been paid early in the month and it was only a small balance that was ONE day late but he said he could only waive the late payment fee (the lower amount).
