Default Paying off 0% rates

I have a couple of credit cards that the 0% rate is going to run out on,
one is deffered interest and the other is just a jump in rate.

When do I have to pay the balance off to avoid any interest.

Is it the due date of the statement in which the interest rate ends or is it before that statement date

Thanks

Short answer, I don't know, but I wouldn't take a chance. If you can, I'd definitely pay it off the month before to avoid any potential problems.

Me too! Or call the credit card company and ask them about the date.
