I didn’t cotton on until my next statement. A very polite phone call and a long history with them got it all waived.
Good luck with this. Maybe ask for a manager.
I hate being
that guy and I am leaning towards eating the interest cost as a somewhat expensive lesson. But if I have to call in for the third time to try to get the late fee waived then I might have to just ask for a manager and see if I can get them to waive the interest too.
