Okay, another posted! Unfortunately it was supposed to report a zero balance after the update, but I guess I got a $2 interest charge or something at the last moment. Tried to pay it before the statement cut, but no luck. Now the balance is $2 instead of $0. :/ But I still have several weeks before my bigger card reports as PIF, so I have time to pay the $2 and hopefully end up with a zero balance! Not even sure if having a $2 balance instead of $0 is affecting me.
I had a similar problem recently. 4$ interest appeared just before they cut the statement. I paid it off the next day, called up the customer service and requested them to report my zero balance to the bureaus. Initially they resisted, but when I explained the reason for my request, they agreed to do it. All three bureaus got the update in 2 days.
