    I'd leave it a couple of days. Quite often you may find "ghost transactions" on your account... the online banking equivalent of thinking out loud while something is being processed behind the scenes. Wait for the payment to clear and i'm sure you'll have just one transcation (the payment) on your statement. Recent transactions are funny that way and usually nothing to worry about. :)

    I've not been informed of a lower interest rate, 2 months back the 0% ended, but I'm waiting for my other 0% card to end to apply for one for both balances!

    bizarre and shame it never stayed at £0

    In that case, it looks like it's been moved to a higher rate - 5.9%.
