The Meijer Credit Card; Part 2

I pay all of my bills at the same time, on the first or second weekend of the month, depending on due dates.  Since my Meijer credit card payment is due on the 15th of the month, I felt that paying it off on the 10th would be sufficient. But, it wasn’t.  When I checked my next months statement, I noticed that my payment was received on the 16th and that I was charged a $35 late fee.

$35.00 late fee!!  That is outrageous!!  With a $.05 a gallon savings, I would need to buy 700 gallons of gasoline just to break even.  And that would take me almost a year at my purchase rate.

I checked my Discover card bill and learned that while I paid it at the same time as my Meijer card,  it was posted on the 13th!  Why does it take Meijer three days longer to post the same type of transaction???  I called to complain but received the a TS response.

Well OK!!  With $35.00 in late fees, I decided that my Meijer card is not  good deal.  Time to find cheaper gas!
