My brain must have been on vacation during March.
Spring break and all. Too much drinky-winky (just kidding I don’t drink).
I paid my Citi Dividend card late by two days (it was due 3/20), so it was hit with a late fee. See, I was fiddling around with my money by opening a new checking at my credit union, and they were ACHing around—blah blah—and in the mist of things I forgot to schedule payment to the new checking. Poor excuse, I know.
Man, $39.00 is a lot of money. That’ll buy 15 boxes of Cap N’ Crunch. Hmm…
I think I’ll ask them to remove the fee. Because if you want to get rid of fees, just ask!
Update: Citi refunded the late fee. Woot!

I have heard if you are late on one card now any others you may have can raise their interest rates also.
Might wanna keep an eye out on your other statements and make sure that doesn’t happen!

yup, those silly universal default clauses. I think they generally apply towards 30 days late or later though.
at least, I hope so. I’ll keep an eye on interest rate regardless. I’m also hoping Citi doesn’t bump the current one up, since I have about 9k in 0% balance transfer on it..
