Late Charge for SO payment
Hello, I pay an MBNA card monthly, I did have it on DD with an additional SO to pay a bit extra.

Amex new pin for closed card
I was surprised to get a letter from Amex with a new PIN for a type of card I've not had with them for about 9 years. Fearing identity theft, I called them and it turns out a glitch has meant their system has been sending out PINs for some closed accounts. Best regards Tim

0% card confusion
I'm a bit confused how it works. If I transfer a balance and it's 0% for 27 months, after that time is up, if I still owe the balance do they back calculate the 27 months interest at the full APR of 18.9% and add it to the balance? Or is it just at that point that they being to calculate the monthly interest and add it to…
