in Credit cards
I had 9 months 0% on this card with a credit balance of £7,500 and did a balance transfer of £5000. With this months statement I got two credit card cheques and would like to know if it is safe to use these for up to £2500 for the remaining four months of 0% without any penalty or interest payments. My thanks in advance for any or all replies received.

yes it would be 0% but do not go up to your limit. As there is a charge for each cheque you write normally 2.25% of the amount you write it for with A & L, But check your t's and c's to see how much you will be charged. . Leave yourself a little 'buffer' zone of say 250£ so you dont go over your limit and then you wont lose your 0% etc.
Note aswell: always write the exact date your promo ends on so you don't get hit by any interest.
HTH.
