Crap! Can I say that here?

I paid an additional $135 on the credit card---NOT!

Oh no, not me, I did it online as always BUT I paid it to CINGULAR for the cell phones!

It is scheduled to go out on the 20th.

So that means Cingular gets $165 AND $135 this month.

I assume they will credit me on next months bill

I have the money, that is not the probelm, the problem is I am a

!

Now I still have to pay an additional $135 on the creditcard because I am on a snowball plan and I don't want to mess it up!

sighhhhh. I would do it now but the password question is one of my dh's and I don't know the answer so I have to wait until tomorrow.

I stink.

lol. Honest mistake. You are not a loser. We all do that once in awhile. It just means your bill next month will be tiny!

**Its_Donna** · 07-18-2007, 05:05 AM

I did that once on our home phone bill....I felt the same way you do. It's just hard this month now but your credit will be nice next month

~Don't sweat the small stuff, Cricket. We ALL do those kinds of things and it could be a whole lot worse. You're not a loser! You wouldn't let someone else call you that, would you? (((Hugs)))~

**Siebrie** · 07-18-2007, 08:43 AM

So you are snowballing extra this month! Can you do the same next month?

Good luck!

**FrugalMomof3** · 07-18-2007, 08:52 AM

Honest mistake for sure, I have done that too so dont feel so bad ... cheer up everyone makes mistakes

**miss_thrifty** · 07-18-2007, 09:53 AM

hubby did the same thing to another bill. frustrated at first because it could of been split on something else, oh well. cant go back on it and change it.
Dont worry, we all make mistakes.

**Buckeye5** · 07-18-2007, 10:25 AM

I hate when I do that kind of stuff. It can make you crazy, and shake your head at yourself. At least your staying with snowball plan, and have a credit on your cell phone bill.

**coltsmama** · 07-18-2007, 11:09 AM

Just look how nice it will feel next month when you get that tiny cell phone bill!! We all make those kind of mistakes. Cheer up.

**Katybird** · 07-18-2007, 11:16 AM

Well, the $30 Cingular bill will be nice next month

.

**cheappearls** · 07-18-2007, 11:34 AM

I've done that before. Paid a bill online 2 weeks early because I had the money then as the due date was coming up I paid it again. Didn't figure it out until I got the next bill for a whole 50 cents. DOH! But that extra money that month went to debt.

**Cricketlegs** · 07-18-2007, 01:35 PM

I am just glad I have extra money in my account so this doesn't have to be a really BAD thing.

Having the credit on a bill that comes every month without fail isn't the end of the world IF YOU HAVE THE MONEY lol.

I will still pay $135 on the credit card. If I keep it up I can have a $3000 balance paid in 9 months.

Only a fool would not get rid of that balance and it is our only credit card debt.

Next comes the car, then the house and we will be free of debt short of all these dang kids in college! LOL!

This is a great site for snowballing and getting the numbers. I found it here and looked and I love it.

Go have a look and see if it can help you get the dang debt paid!

i have that problem every few months with my bank of america credit card, for some reason and old account still shows up on the card paying screen and every so often i pay the old card instead of the current one and end up with a credit balance that i have to petition for and then wait 10 biz days so i can cash the check and pay the right card!.........i feel your pain
