When to BT on Barclaycard?

Hi.....

I will have payed off my Ballance in FULL on Friday 12th Sep......i use Barklaycards online payment so it credits to my account in a few hours.....:j
My last statement was produced on 18th August,so the September one will be produced a few days after iv 100% cleared my account.......

Does this mean i wont have any triling interest as the ballance is payed in full before the next statement (Sep) is produced?............

My intention is to go for a credit limit increase when my account is credited as 0% ballance on the 12th......

Am i safe to do a BT at this time also or wait a few days till after my September staement is produced?

Thankyou........:beer:

  • there may be interest on the september statement which will have been interest on the balance that existed from 18th august to 12th of september.
    Yes wait until you have a statement saying balance 00.00 before doing a BT especialy with BC
  • You may get interest on the October statement as well for a few pennies so I'd pay off September's statement as soon as possible before any more interest piles up. I expect your interest in sterling for september will be in double figures.
  • Thankyou both..........:j

    Cant wait till the 12th now to clear my card......paying your card of can be so much fun............:rotfl:
