| If you were paying for something from 17th to 24th of the month, how many days is that?! I won't say what I figured it as - so as not to sway your judgement - but I am very confused |

| I should probably add - it's for changing a date on a monthly payment - which was always the 17th of the month... I am MORE confused |

| Right, well the tool I am dealing with (hence me doubting his word!) has just fuddled me even more. This is how it went: Can I change the payment date from 17th - 24th? And pay the difference? Yes, that's 8 extra days. That will be £xxx amount. Erm, can you check that - I thought it was seven, adding one week?! Oh yeah - sorry. I was counting the 25th also. It's seven days then from 17th-24th -for £xxx amount. (I should add, that is the short-hand version and nothing like the actual e-mails and letters sent! ) |

| I thought it was +7days. He said it was +8. Soooo... I asked ladies on here and they said it was 8 too... so I started wondering... but in the meantime he came back and said it was +7days?! So was I right in the first place or have I just confused him too?! xx

| No no Jo, it confirms what me original workings-out were! If I already pay upto 17th, then I don't see why he was trying to charge me twice for it SO - I counted day one as going from 17th-18th, day two as from 18th-19th etc. ........ and that equaled 7! Hey, if he's now saying it's 7 - and charging me for seven - then I'd best get the cheque off before he goes back on it eh xx P.S. My fingers are worn out from all this counting and I am thoroughly sick of the numbers 7 and 8! |

| Oh and no worries Kinky - although, I did laugh at your ironic type-o : "But am pregnant and blonde!! So thats not usual!!!" pmsl - is that supposed to be unusual |
