Okay, this is probably a stupid question, but I've never encountered this before.
I pay my credit card in full every month. My last statement amount was $4850. HOWEVER, $400 of that was some online shopping orders that I returned and were credited AFTER the statement closed. So, I need to set up my upcoming payment. When I go to make the payment, my options are "statement balance in full $4850", "minimum payment", or "other amount." I assumed that the credits would be taken into account when I went to input the payment and it would adjust it to the outstanding amount of $4450, but it didn't. I know my AMEX does that so that is what I assumed would happen on the payment screen.
So, if I make a $4450 payment, will my account be considered "paid in full" for that billing cycle, or will I get hit with interest charges if I don't pay the "statement balance in full $4850" amount?
