Barclaycard (Goldfish) Statement Date change

Anyone had a problem with their statement day being changed my Barclaycard?

I have had a Leeds BS card with Goldfish for years now and has always billed on 15th of the month (day either side if a non processing day).

First few months with Barclaycard has had statement produced on 15th. However this month, the 15th went and no statement produced; gave a day or too and still nothing. Called Customer Services and was told that the statement date beeen changed by someone and you must have requested it. Now on the 6th of the month and therefore no statement will be produced for November and next will be in December.

Means will have two months of history on the account now to pay at end of December; not a big problem as I pay in full as cashback card and suppose will make a little bit more interest than I normally would.

    Have recently been changed from Goldfish to Barclaycard Goldfish.
    The statement date was about the same but the payment due date
    is about 2 weeks later.
    I didn't ask for a change so I guess it may be a difference between the
    way the companies operate.
  • My first statement date was the 21/09/08 due to be paid 20/10/08, the next was 21/10/08 due to be paid 17/09/08, then 21/11/08 due to be paid 16/12/08, then 19/12/08 due to be paid 13/01/09. I called them to ask for the reason why the dates were changing - in their favour - and was told that the billing dates moved by a few days each month, but the statement date would remain the same. I have another card with a BT rate of 0% which wass due to expire so I cleared the existing account with barclaycard on the 19th of January which was my statement date. I have not received a statement for January but I was £101 in credit on the 19th. I then took advantage of their 0% transfer offer and transferred Approx £4000 on the 31/01/09. I now discover that my statement ment date has been moved to the 2nd of February. Will this affect the balance transfer? As interest is charged on transactions and payments to the card come off the transfer first.
