Klarna (new rules)

Has anybody got a klarna card and can give me some advice please?

I have had the card since it first started and have loved it. I would be able to use it for what I wanted/needed and use my bank card in a different way. I would then have 30 days from purchase of each product to pay it off. This worked for me as I would do it weekly as and when I needed.

However, since the start of the new change from October 2nd and the new card, i have been given a statement of £170 to be paid by 1st November and that is to be paid in one go. Whereas before, a purchase I made 2 days ago, I would still have 28 days to pay it, I now have just about 2 weeks.

I will of course hopefully pay it all whrn I am paid at the end of the month and will be closing my klarna account. But my question is, is there a way I can split that payment into 2 or 3 payments instead of one go?

Has anyone else started the new klarna card since being on the old one and hating it as much as I am?

I think it's fine, you can move your payments up to two weeks delayed for free I think.
You get one purchase a month you can set as a pay in three intrest free but other purchases can be put on pay in 3/6/9 for 39.9% interest.
It's more like a credit card you pay off at the end of the month now though.
