Yes. Many years ago I missed a Barclaycard payment. The due date, within
the month, had advanced by perhaps ten days over the preceding years.
Whether that was really the reason I missed it, I really can't remember,
but I complained on that pretext (in writing) and they refunded the charges.
I can't think of a good reason why (some of) the CC providers vary the
date like this, other than to net a few late payments each month. Maybe
someone else can.
