    Just a week or two ago Barclaycard accepted a refund (withdrawal from William Hill) as a payment.

    What I don't understand though is this

    Let's say the statement is for £350 and is generated on 1st January, with a payment due date of 20 January.
    Let's say £300 of the items are returned on 5th January.

    If I only paid the £50, wouldn't that mean that I would be charged interest as I hadn't paid the full statement balance?

    I don't understand how they calculate these things...

    I've used credit cards for years, and I sometimes do have refunds, but I've never had a high enough refund amount that fell after the statement date to have given it any thought....
    Indecision is the key to flexibility :)
