This is just a convenient excuse people use so they don't look so dumb when they screw things up.
For those not TOTALLY understanding - probably not good to play games. But - really - once you know the statement has closed, you are safe. It is not that hard to figure out. Heck, even if they waited to actually VIEW that late December statement on line, they would be safe. I would agree with you that the idea of some new statement and closing date just does not happen.
Of course, now that is January - none of this matters.. .LOL!
