Black Diamon Credit Card

So, I'm a bit unsure about something. Hoping your credit friendly people can help me.

Basically, on my statement it says "Statement Balance £XXX"- is this what I have to pay back for me to be performing the "Pay your credit cards back in full every month" mantra?

I've always thought I'd have to pay back everything that's owing on the card come the time when I go to pay?

Right or wrong. Please advise. :money:

Ooops. I mean Black Diamond!

    You only have to pay what the balance on the statement is, transactions that have come in since will not have to be paid for until the next statement.

    Yes, just pay the £XXX. Anything else which you have bought since the statement was issued will appear on your next statement.
