Discover Card Statement Question

I noticed somewhere on the forums (can't find where now) and interesting comment regarding Discover and their statements. The poster mentioned that Discover reports your balance on the statement due date as opposed to the statement cut date. Is there any validity to this? If that were the case, I would consider using my new Discover as my primary spending card and let the BofA card SD itself.

Re: Discover Card Statement Question

My monthly statement date is always the 13th of the month. That is when my balance ie reported. The due date is always the 8th of the following month. I've never seen a deviation of this.

 

 

 

From a BK years ago to:
EX - 3/11 pulled by lender- 835, EQ - 2/11-816, TU - 2/11-782
