RA Card in received Foilio shows as "EXP: SEP 2013" , and cards always show extra month to allow new cards to be sent out. My Ambassador Calendar Year runs until 31st July 2013

Saw text in my profile PCR Account Activity in November saying
"Royal Ambassador Renewal", and low and behold my RA expiry then showed 31st Aug 2013 instead of 31st July 2013.

Strange thing is the monthly IC emails (Your monthly InterContinental Ambassador update) show my Ambassador status with expiring date of JULY2014... So I am very confused now.
