Answer: A. The charge will be due on the next bill. The charge was already billed as reflected in Everett 's credit card statement. However, since he has immediately lodged his complaint to the bank about the unfamiliar charge, his payment for the said charge was deferred while it is being investigated. The bank validated his complaint by sending him the copy of his signature previously authorizing the charge. Since his complaint is not valid, Everett must pay the charge which will be due on the next bill.
