Barclaycard Initial Visa card

Hi guy I have a quick question.

I recently purchased two items that which I got a refund on back into my visa account. Now the thing I don't understand for budgeting purposes is would these two refunds be applied at the time my visa bill is generated or would I have to pay for the refunds at the end of my month and then would barclaycard show this is credit that is available for me to spend without paying anything next month? On my mybarclaycard page it says total new transactions this month as £300.81 and my current balance at £272.93.

Any help guys?

    It depends when the refunds are received. If they are received before the statement is generated then it will not show the refund. When you get the statement if you pay it off in full for example and you get a refund after then your account will be placed into credit.
  • Be aware that refunds will not count as payments to your account. Therefore if you receive a refund you will still eed to make your minimum payment.
