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.
