What is estimated interest?
Account Card providers show on statements an estimate of the amount of interest payable where a customer only makes the minimum payment amount. The estimated amount gives you an indication in advance of how much interest you could be asked to pay on your next statement, and will help you manage your finances more effectively.
  • You only pay the minimum payment amount shown on your statement;
  • Your balance doesn't increase before your next statement date due to any more purchases, cash advances or Balance Transfers;
  • The minimum payment is applied to your Account on the due date;
  • The way we calculate interest doesn't change and the interest rate(s) (which can vary) used in the calculation are the same at next month's statement date as they are now;
  • The amount takes no Account of any delayed payment promotions we may offer in the period ahead.
