This isn’t a TAAT just coincidence but I got me thinking as it’s just happened to me too
I’ve booked and paid for accommodation for 16 people. It’s just over £150 per person so not an insignificant sum
This isn’t an obligatory type thing, people are only going if they want to, I’ve just booked it as I can get a discount (that everyone gets the advantage of)
I’ve told everyone it’s booked, the price per person and my bank details.
Every has paid except 1 person who asked when my credit card bill was due and said she’d pay the day before.
Now in theory I’m not out of pocket until then but it literally wouldn’t occur to me to say that if someone else had gone to the trouble of booking something for everyone
So
Is it reasonable to think you just pay when the cost is incurred (YANBU)
Or
Is it ok to just pay when the person who has put the money on their credit card needs to pay it (YABU)

AIBU?
To ask when it is appropriate to pay for things booked by someone else on their credit card
