Late payment fee

    Hi


    I’ve just checked my account and noticed that a late payment fee has been applied. However, I made a payment before the statement was issued — and it was over the minimum amount required.


    In the past, with other banks, paying before the statement date has not resulted in a late fee, so this has come as a surprise. I was paid early due to the bank holiday and, because of my learning disability, I need to make payments as soon as funds arrive in order to manage things effectively.


    If I had known a payment before the statement wouldn’t count toward the minimum, I would’ve waited and made arrangements accordingly.


    This situation has caused me a lot of anxiety, especially as I’m worried it may affect my 0% interest arrangement. Could you please clarify what happened, and whether the 0% offer is still intact?


    I’d really appreciate any support or guidance you can offer.
