Useless Credit Card Dealings with Avios and ABSA

<p>65 days after may initial application was accepted i receive my cards.</p> <p>They state you will receive a second letter with your Pin. This never came. So i had to go in to a Branch.</p> <p>Received my first statement today.</p> <p>I had requested the Debit Order to go off in full on the 3rd of the month, so one there was money in my account and two so that i dont have to pay interest.</p> <p>I see on my statement they have sent by bill period from the 6th Sep to 5th Oct, making the payment due date the 31st Oct.</p> <p>The Debit Order is set to the 3rd Nov.</p> <p>Thats 3 days after the due Date !!!!!!!!</p> <p>So i get charged interest and get flagged as a bad payer.</p> <p>So i phone them and theres nothing they can do after they have stuffed up.</p> <p>Now i need to borrow money to pay them before th 31st as i am only paid on the last day of the month.</p> <p>They also cannot rectify the problem they created until i pay them.</p> <p>Then i need to phone back.</p> <p>Always the Customers problem and never an immediate solution.</p>
