Reminder- Zero Balance

I have a Shell credit card and a Citi Mastercard and have set them up with recurring bill/transfer/reminders. When they have a zero balance they will not clear on or after their due date and I need to manually delete them each month. Is this behavior normal, or am I doing something wrong?

    I would say it's normal. There won't be a transaction downloaded with which to match it. So I do what you do and delete the now unneeded reminder.

    FWIW, I have other reminders that I have to delete for the same reason. For example, I get dividends on the last day of the month that I want in my Spending Plan so I have a guesstimated reminder for those each month. When the dividends come in as deposits, they show up in my Spending Plan but since Investments don't support reminders, it won't link so I have to delete the now redundant reminder.

    Thanks Steve, I assumed that to be the case but thought I'd double check.
