could reduce your future borrowing credit score.
You may be granted a grace period of 1 day post-due date,
during which rollover fee will not be accrued or
collected. If the overdue is still not paid after the
grace period is over, the rollover fee will be charged for
the entire period of delay, including the initial 1 day of
the grace period.

and the first installment remains unpaid beyond its due
date, You will not be granted a grace period for
subsequent installments upon their due date
