Forums Payment cards Barclaycard Avios £20 avios plus fee charged in advance or arrears?

    I switched from the plus to the regular card via the Barclays app 3 weeks ago. Was told it would switch over at the end of my next statement date.

    Called Barclays and was told I won’t be charged another £20.

    My card switched this morning and just saw I was charged the £20 fee yesterday.

    Is this correct?

    It’s charged in advance. So probably right. But why not ask them?

    Probably because you’ll get a better answer here more quickly than from Barclaycard 😄

    The next monthly fee gets charged automatically because at the time (just before the statement date) it’s still a Plus card, but it should get refunded a few days later.
