unoriginal

I know I am probably just missing something but I can't seem to figure this out... On my last month's statement (ending 1/24/08), I had a balance of $3730. In February I made 3 different payments on the account and had it fully paid off by 2/20...4 days before the closing date. I just got a notification that I have $27 in finance charges this month...Since I paid off the entire balance prior to this month's closing date, why do I have a finance charge? Sorry if this is a dumb question...

Would teachers who are eligible for the Federal Teacher Loan Forgiveness also be eligible for this if they still have an outstanding balance on their Stafford loans?

No issues here either. C/L - $7,000 with a balance of $3,000 which will be PIF at the end of the month. I've had the card (Amex Blue) for about 9 or so years and have never had a problem.
