not difficult
statement balance = balance as of statement date (cutoff) only. your amount is -ve, means you overpaid. nothing to do.
outstanding balance = current/latest outstanding. it's showing +ve amount, meaning you've already spent after statement date, and that amount is lastest outstanding you owe. statement not yet out, so there is nothing to do either.
are you sure your statement date = 17th of each month?
thanks so much for helping me to understand.
my statement date is on 30th each month.
When you bring out the concept of statement date, I think I am confused with payment due date. I wrote 17 Aug because it is shown that 17 August is the payment due date.
let me try to write down what I understand so far:
- RM 11.90 is the amount I overpaid as of 30 July when the statement came out
- RM 7.51 is the amount I have newly spent and haven't paid start counting from 31 July
- If I haven't been overpaying, I am supposed to pay RM 7.51 before 17 Aug to avoid getting charged for interest
- but now since I have overpaid RM 11.90 and this figure is bigger than RM 7.51, so I can actually do nothing and wait until they counter themself automatically on 17 Aug
Am I correct, or there are still wrong concepts I am holding?
