UPS Question

Elle · Hermes

I don't think UPS can deliver to PO boxes .

What about Express Mail via USPS? And a call to your CC company to say it's on it's way?

If I call my CC company and say it's on the way - will that keep them from sticking me w/a late fee?

Elle · Hermes

Have you ever been late before? If you're nice to them, they will almost definitely wave the fee if it's the first time you've ever been late. Check their policy on what they consider 'late', some companies only consider it late if it's not postmarked by the due date.

You might also be able to call the CC company and make a payment with your debit card over the phone - sometimes they charge a fee to do this, but the fee might be less than what it would cost you to overnight/express mail it.

It's my Gap card, which you cannot pay online, in store, or over the phone

I've never been late before and the due date is tomorrow. Maybe I should just drop it in the mail today so it's postmarked before the due date, and see if they sock me w/a late charge. If they do then I can try and beg them to take it off, right?

Stupid Gap .

Send it out the quickest way possible, and then if they stick you with a late fee call and try to beg it off. Sounds like the best way, given the situation .

asf · Kate Spade

could you pay your cc online?

Thanks for your help Elle! BTW - love the usuage of the matrix icon

asf - no gap doesn't allow you to pay any other way than mail

i know this is already late since you mailed it- but i know we both have Bank One/Chase and you can send an overnight check with them for $25... I am sure you know this- but its the first thing I thought of when I saw your post!

Just so you know, Gap allows you to pay online through Checkfree.com. You can schedule your payment up to the day before the due date. I use it every month and love how easy it is! - That may help you in the future!
