Yes. The bank may charge you for interest and fees that were assessed before you closed your account. Review your account agreement for information on how finance charges are calculated on your account, or contact your bank.
The bank may charge residual interest for the days in the billing cycle before you paid the balance in full. Residual interest accrues from the first day of the billing cycle in which you paid the balance in full until the date the bank credits your payment.
For example, you have been carrying a balance for three billing cycles. You receive your account statement reflecting a $1,000 balance. The minimum payment is $50 and it is due on the 25th of the month. You decide to pay the balance in full. The payment is credited on the 24th.
Even though you paid off the $1,000 before the payment due date, the bank may charge you for the residual interest that accrued from the first day of the billing cycle until your payment was credited on the 24th.
If you feel that the fees or interest were assessed in error, you should file a written billing error dispute within 60 days of the statement that showed the alleged error. The information on filing a written billing error dispute and the address to which the notice should be sent are listed on your billing statement.
