BarclayCard Payment Dates

Always pay off the credit card balance in full every month, but it's getting increasingly harder to do so as Barclaycard seem to have (recently, anyway) really irregular payment dates.

My salary hits my account on 26th of the month, so I can usually assure payment getting to the card by 27th / 28th. My last four "Payment due by" dates on statements have been:

Jan statement: 29th January
Feb statement: 25th February
Mar statement: 3rd April
Apr statement: 23rd April

So this month I've only had 20 days grace. Is this normal? Anyone know the rationale behind calculating payment dates? Are the trying to do an 'Egg' on me, and squeeze me out?

    Yup, I've had that with BC this month too, pain in the **** :mad: Could it be because February is a short month and that affected the March statement?
