Which Day Counts as Day One?
Counting backwards has the same off-by-one ambiguity as counting forwards. Both readings are shown here so you can match the wording of whatever rule, form, or policy you are working with.
Yesterday = day 1 (the usual rule)
June 12, 2026
Today is day 0; count 120 full days back. This is the main answer above.
Today = day 1 (inclusive counting)
June 13, 2026
Some rules count today as the first of the 120 days, landing one day later.
Is a Date Within the Last 120 Days?
Pick the date on your receipt, statement, or record and see exactly how many days back it falls — and whether it is still inside a 120-day window.
What 120 Days Ago Means
The outer edge of most dispute windows
One hundred twenty days ago matters mostly because it is where many of the longest consumer-protection clocks run out. Card-network chargeback rules commonly cap dispute filing at around 120 days from the transaction or expected-delivery date, making this the last-chance lookback for payment problems.
It is also a practical four-month marker for semesters, seasonal planning, and probation or review periods that outlast a quarter.
Common Reasons to Look Back 120 Days
- Checking whether a transaction is still within a ~120-day chargeback window
- Dating the start of a semester, season, or four-month program
- Verifying long review or probation periods that began about four months ago
120 Days Is Often the Last Day to Dispute a Charge
The major card networks’ dispute rules generally allow filing up to about 120 days from the transaction date — or, for goods and services that never arrived, from the date you expected them. Past that point, the bank usually cannot raise a chargeback at all, whatever the merits.
If you are anywhere near the edge, two details matter: which date starts the clock (purchase, delivery, or expected delivery), and that some banks apply shorter internal deadlines than the network maximum. Enter the relevant start date in the checker above, and when it is close, contact the bank rather than waiting.
- Chargeback filing commonly caps near 120 days
- The clock may start at purchase or expected delivery
- Banks can impose shorter deadlines than the network cap
How This Calculation Works
This page counts exactly 120 calendar days backwards from today — weekends and holidays included — using your local date, so the answer rolls forward at your local midnight. The calendar below marks every day in the lookback span so you can trace it against month boundaries. Planning forwards instead? See 120 days from today. If your rule counts working days only, use the business days calculator, and for arbitrary numbers or specific start dates, the main days calculator handles both directions.

Frequently Asked Questions
Count back 120 calendar days from today's local date, treating yesterday as 1 day ago — so today itself is day 0. Saturdays, Sundays, and public holidays are all included. Because the count starts from your local "today," the answer rolls forward at your local midnight.
Under the usual convention, no: today is day 0 and yesterday is day 1, which is the main answer shown on this page. Some rules count inclusively instead, treating today as day 1 — that reading lands one day later, and both dates are shown side by side above so you can match the wording of your rule.
Usually yes — "within the last 120 days" almost always means the window from that date through today, inclusive at both ends. The date shown above is the oldest date that still qualifies; anything earlier falls outside. Use the window checker on this page to test any specific date.
Yes. This page counts calendar days, so every day on the calendar is included. If your rule counts working days instead — "10 business days" is a different span than 10 calendar days — use the business days calculator.
