I'm confused.... don't those two amounts total 885.60?

1. Purchases at the nominal rate of 27.24%; balance due $365.66 and
2. Cash advances at the nominal rate of 28.49%; balance due $519.94.
For a reason that is not clear on this statement my payment of $870.88 posted on December 31st was applied in full to the purchases balance ($365.66) but only a portion of the remaining payment was applied to the cash advances balance ($197.72), thereby leaving a balance of $322.22 to accrue the higher finance rate creating the amount due of $7.80. Where was the remaining $307.50 of the $870.88 payment sitting during this time? Why was my payment of $870.88 not applied to both balances at the time of posting?
Ok. Here is the pertinent portion of my first dispute letter for any sleuths out there
Yes, you can PIF, but you'll have to do it two months in a row.

Ok, with that in mind can you ever PIF? If you can't rely on the statement for the "true" account balance to pay how do you ever reach a $0 balance?This may be a good deterent for me to never get a cash advance for any reason.
