Retrocession cotisation CB XXXX Refund of fee for credit/bank card no. xxxx Explanation: I know exactly what this is, though I'm not sure of the most concise way of expressing it — but i'm sure you can figure that out for yourself! I have this on my account every year — it helps so much when you actually live here and experience thse things "in real life". I have to pay an annual 'subscription' or 'fee' for my bank card; but for some reason I have never quite fathomed, they always seem to almost immediately refund me the fee paid! I think possibly it may be one of those things where there would be a fee if you didn't use the card — so as soon as I do use it, I get the fee refunded. Anyway, that's what it means, and you will probably be able to see that there is the equivalent amount (or something close to it) that has gone out some time earlier as a debit. The CB + number will of course simply be identifying which particular card it is (we used to have 2 on our joint account); it is very common to identify a card just by giving the final group of 4 digits. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2018-04-08 18:46:10 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Note for future ref. that it is also often abbreviated to 'retroc' ;-) |
