My payment of $110.00 - overpaid ) did not clear the bank until - - which made me 1 day late and caused me to have a $35.00 late fee added to my card. I did not receive a bill in by the - week of -, so I called to confirm that my account had a zero balance ( I was unaware the payment posted a day late and resulted in a late fee ).
