    c) pay on the Sunday.

    Talking about compo and/or interest for 1 day? That sort of attitude will do your extension/repeat work prospects the world of good I'd imagine.

      Shouldn't this be moved to light relief as it's surely not a serious question?.....

      A day...

        Have a look at my thread about when the agent was late paying by a couple of days.

        I did not consider doing what you are talking about and the general concensus was that even I over reacted.

          First off, I have only asked the agent to pay in accordance with the T&C's and in line what they have done for the duration of the contract.

          They are going to get back to me. If they say tough, I'll probably just accept it.

          Second, I asked a simple question about interest and compo.

          Third, everyone screams 'What's in the contract?' Well it is in the contract so they should stick to that. Shouldnt they?

          Or does it only go one way?
          I couldn't give two fornicators! Yes, really!

              Money isnt credited to the credit card account on a Sat \ Sun or bank holiday, it will be credited to your account the next day ie Mon or Tues if Mon is a bank holiday. So you'd have a late payment fee at least for missing your (Sunday) statement date.

                    I paid my last HSBC credit card statement from an HSBC account on a Sunday evening and incurred no interest or fees.
