Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
Does anyone have experience with the autopay feature on the Citi cash back card?
I signed up for a new Citi card last month and am trying to figure out how to autopay the CURRENT balance IN FULL on the 28th of each month (statement comes on the 4th).
They have an option to pay the "balance", but from what I can tell that pays the balance from the last statement, not the balance currently on the card.
I thought I figured out how to trick it by entering a fixed autopay larger than what my balance would ever be. For example, I entered $4500 for an autopay amount. However, it looks like this calculates how much to pay at the time I set it up. I came back a few days later when the balance had grown, and the autopay amount was still showing what it calculated earlier, not the current balance.
Either I'm missing something, or this autopay is useless and I'll have to do it manually.
