How to Retrieve Personal Credit Card Information
Your monthly credit card statement will contain personal credit card information, such as your current balance, the spending limit on your account and the amount of your last payment. If, however, you find that you need to access this information between billing cycles, you have the right to do so. Most credit card companies will update consumer records every 24 hours. This provides you with up-to-date information on your account at any time.
