OK, I looked at when I wrote the check (yes I write checks). I wrote the check on 9-17 and it got mailed on 9-18. The due date was 9-28. It had 10 days to get there which should have been plenty of time. Check didn't get processed until 9-29. I personally think they held it to get that little bit of $$ from me. It was $96.16 interest and a $30 late fee. $126.16 total. I just paid it in full online. I hate paying online. I don't trust it. I never have trusted it. You computer geeks might like it, but this GOF don't.

We have had several "late" payments due to USPS taking their sweet time delivering mail.
Wife has called and they have always taken charges off
Give it a try, can't hurt

So did the mail run slow?
Mail get diverted?
Company hold the check?
It really took 11 days to get there?

So did the mail run slow? I don't know, but it's worked for all my life.
Mail get diverted? Another I don't know, but probably not.
Company hold the check? I think they did to get a little extrra out of me.
It really took 11 days to get there? I doubt it.Last edited by Goldeneagle; 10-13-2022, 05:07 AM.

So I would try calling them with a little sweet talk and see where it gets you. I know you are tired of talking on the phone, but a phone call might save you $126.
Tell them your story and most of the time they will credit your account.
