    they process/ask the bank for it 3 days before but the date they pay it will be the 'due by' date. unless it's an 'on or around'.

    Dangerous?

    The date it will be taken is clearly stated on the statement, so I don't see any problem.

    That's very strange, because my Tesco DD is taken on the payment due date.


    I'm on a min payment DD though (0% intro period), so maybe you're on a standard rate and are paying in full and the 'rules' are different?

    Yes, just an ordinary card which I have had for several years now. Always paid in full.

    I was quite surprised as it is totally different from all our other cards, but at least they do use the same date every month, unlike on the other cards which can move several days over a year due to weekends and BHs.
