Changing Payment Date

FGWP

Hi all,

New here as me and my other half cannot work out what to do about this!

The mortgage and some bills come out of my partner's bank account monthly on 1st and I used to pay him my half of this on 18th of the month previous.
E.g. I paid my half on 18th Feb and he paid the full amount due on 1st March

I have changed jobs and my payment date has moved to 26th and so I have changed my payment date to him to 28th as I like all my money to come out ASAP after my salary goes in so I can budget.

This month I paid him my half on 18th March and the full payment comes out on 1st April (today). My next payment to him is set up for 28th April ready for him to pay on 1st May, but I've just realised that means I won't be paying anything out of my March pay packet and so that doesn't seem right but we can't work out why or if it is right!

Having the same 'issue' with a bank loan I used to pay on 17th of the month that I've moved to 1st and again feels like I've skipped a payment! Not as big a deal with that as I can take payment holidays, but more worried that my partner isn't out of pocket.

Thanks all and sorry if I'm over-complicating things!

You paid in Feb for Mar, Mar for Apr and will be in Apr for May. Nothing is missing there.
