Statement date v Payment due date

rubble2

I have a Halifax credit card, it generates a statement on 23rd of the month with a payment due date of 17th.

I wanted to change the statement/payment date to a better time for me in the month so I rang CS and asked to shift the statement date to the 1st of the month with (I assumed) the payment due date automatically shifting accordingly.
I was told that they couldn't alter the statement date but could change the payment due date. This threw me slightly as I wasn't expecting my request causing a problem so in my confusion I agreed to a payment due date of the 1st of the month.

On reflection I am not sure exactly what I have now agreed to - will I get a statement generated on the 23rd with a payment due date on the first (only one week later?) or will the statement date automatically change to maintain the time gap between statement and payment due date?

Thanks

It'll change to maintain the time gap.
