<prompt> Human: I have paid off my credit card every single month and Ive had it and for some reason I end up with these ridiculous statement balances that are added onto my next months bill. If I pay it all off at once, why do I have a statement month the following month?I just had a statement balance of 1500 that is due tomorrow, but I honestly have no idea why its there  <response>: They come from the money you keep putting on the card. The statement balance is the balance on the card at the time the statement was created. Usually this is a 1 month period. What do you mean by paid off my cc on time or before my due date? The minimum payment, is not paying off. If you paid off the statement balance, thats great, but that doesnt cover anything but the previous statement.If your question is more of Why does my statement balance not change on my online payment options, despite already having paid taht statement balance?. Its because the balance of your card at the time of the statement doesnt change. If you paid it off, great youll avoid interest, but that doesnt change the historical amount on the card when the statement was cut.
