Deletion Log

Please refrain from deleting this article without a fair debate.Smallman12q (talk) 21:16, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The "article" consists of a single sentence. Unless someone significantly expands it, it should be deleted and explained in the article it is most relevant too. LiamSP (talk) 02:58, 27 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Also, the "article" is completely incorrect, and obviously written by someone who doesn't understand trailing interest at all. The lender is not "reaching back into a previous billing cycle" - you are simply paying interest that accrued on the balance between the last statement being created and you paying off the balance. 86.161.219.194 (talk) 14:27, 13 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I've corrected the article to accurately describe the concept, but I'm not convinced this needs to be a separate article in its own right. 193.113.37.9 (talk) 10:56, 29 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
