I have my auto pay in full every month set to On but, yeah, I was originally offered a 0% for 1 year offer (didn't use, always PIF'ed) and I did get the card around Aug/Sep of '22 so I guess that makes sense. The $471.17 stated in the e-mail was my balance at the time the e-mail from citi was received. Payment was not due until October 1 but I got spooked and paid it early Sep, after receiving the e-mail. Oh well.
Again, thanks to everyone who replied, much appreciated.

P.S. Still not sure what a "Promotional Balance" is, lol!

@ptatoheddo you have an active 1 month promo on your Sears card that runs from August 15th through September 14th?
I always have those so probably, but I forget about them if I can't use them. Spend $700+ online, spend $700+ home improvement, etc.

That could help explain the mismatch in dates as the 1 month promos nowadays run from the 15th of the current month through the 14th of the next one.
I got a similar email as you but there was no mismatch in dates and my current gas/grocery/restaurant promo does expire at the end of this month.
