Laura Ashley Store (Mastercard) Card

I went to purchase a table/chair set from LA. The Sales Assistant said I could get an extra 10% off if I opened a Store Card.The total came to 775.00.
I have received the first statement with this one transaction- payment by 31st Oct. I have paid this.
In between the first statement was issue and today; I made a second purchase on the card -291.74. It was not listed on the paper statement but on the online account.

If I do not clear this subsequent payment by 31st Oct- will I get charged interest? On this and any other transactions between now and end of month? Or does this carry over to Nov statement?

  • No, you only have to pay off the balance listed on the statement by the due in order to qualify for the interest free period. You'll get another statement which will include the other item next month, and you'll just have to pay the amount listed on that in full to get it interest free.
    Credit 'Score' - Don't buy the credit 'score' that Experian, Equifax and Noddle want to sell you. It's an arbitrary number that means nothing when it comes to applying for credit.

    ALWAYS HAVE A DIRECT DEBIT SET UP FOR THE MINIMUM PAYMENT ON YOUR CREDIT CARDS, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER YOU PLAN TO LOGIN AND PAY EACH MONTH.
  • Got it, thanks. There are a few items I want to buy from LA sale before end of this month, buy a few options and return the items I do not need. However this would be a false economy if incurring an interest fee.
