A new study supports a model of psychopathy, focusing on the

Media Outlet: MEL Magazine
Deadline: 7:00 PM CST - 14 July
Query:
If you aren't able to pay a credit card balance this month, buy
something expensive and immediately return it. The credit from
the return counts toward your current statement balance due.
For example, I went to pay my Lowe's card balance and found my
current statement balance due is $0. I had bought an item,
returned it, and repurchased the same item. Net change to total
balance increased since I repurchased it, but my current
statement due balance was covered and customer service confirmed
I'll still avoid interest and the late fee even if I choose not
to pay this month. *Lowe's card uses Synchrony Bank. Other
bank's policies may vary.
Obviously this sounds pretty risky and ultimately I don't want
to prop this up as something you should do, but I am interested
in fact checking it. So, my questions are:
1) Fist, can you explain how/why this works? Just very
bare-bones mechanics of how the credit/debit of returns on
credit work?
2) With that in mind, would this work? Because it seems a little
paradoxical, aren't you ultimately going further into debt by
doing this? Or why can't you just use the money you used to
purchase the, say, TV to pay down your card?
3) That said, it sounds like people in the comments have done it
before, but it only works for certain banks -- is there a way to
find out if your bank debits returns towards your current
statement balance?
4) Ultimately, (if not already answered) why might this be a
risky thing to do, and are there better last-minute ways people
can avoid getting dinged with a late fee/credit score if they
can't pay?
And I think that's it! Of course, if there's anything I didn't
ask about, by all means don't hold back. My deadline is tonight,
but I know you've got a lot on your plate so no worries if it's
not feasible.
Requirements:
Credit card experts, financial experts, personal finance
advisors
