in Credit cards
just wondering, i am due to go on hols, have a minimum balence dd set up however pay more off the balence in branch, this months statement wont arrive before i go away, and was wondering can i use the credit slip from a prior statement (ie i have found a statement from january with an unused slip on it?) or does it have to correspond with that months bill

There should be no issue with you doing that.
You might as well do it by bank transfer though, surely? Will probably get there quicker than with cash or cheque.0 -

thanks, i didnt think of a transfer actually, i cant pay via the c/cards site as for some reason cap one never seems to like my lloyds debit card.
if i dont pay more off before my hols its not to desperate, as its a 0% card, (which i am paying a set amount each month) but i am not sure if i will be disciplined enough when i get back to pay the extra off lol (plus if its in my account whilst i am away, may be more inclined to spend it!)MFW#105 - 2015 Overpaid £8095 / 2016 Overpaid £6983.24 / 2017 Overpaid £3583.12 / 2018 Overpaid £2583.12 / 2019 Overpaid £2583.12 / 2020 Overpaid £2583.12/ 2021 overpaid £1506.82 /2022 Overpaid £2975.28 / 2023 Overpaid £2677.30 / 2024 Overpaid £2173.61 Total OP since mortgage started in 2015 = £37,286.86 2025 MFW target £1700, payments to date at April 2025 - £1712.07..0 -

Yeah, i've done this a few times. There's no problem with using old credit slips.
