(Numbers , dates etc only for illustration purposes) Credit card bill comes in and balance due £1,000 with DD set up for sat 15th month to pay balance in full. For own reasons decide to pay £500 early and will pay the other £500 on due date. However after giving time to process re-check account online and it says £650 will be deducted by DD. This now apparently includes expenditure on card after previous cut off date . "It's to ensure as payment is set to pay balance that it will be zero after said payment. This all seems very wrong/weird to me. (I had used app to cancel DD for the month to protect against such stupidity, but that hadn't gone through either, so after online robot got human to confirm they have suspended DD for month). To me making an early payment in these cases penalises you.
