In my case the payment went through one day late because I fiddled with the automatic payment dates in my accounts. I was able to save my 0% rate and I got the late payment fees reversed 'just this once' like you so I was happy about that. Whew! We dodged the bullet on that one. something similar to this happened to me. In my case the payment went through one day late because I fiddled with the automatic payment dates in my accounts.
