Sometimes you just fall into the cracks like that, When I got them I think it took 15 days before I got my statement.  But I applied for a card once and I got the first statement before I even got the card. 

 

Just happens sometimes.

Quite normal, actually! That's probably just for the initial statement. Since they decided your bill would be due the 22nd of every month, and the next not as close date would be December, they had to cut your statement around this time. Your billing cycle will look back to normal by the time the Jan. due date comes around!
