Interest free balance transfers & due dates

[KatyMac]

I have a credit card with 3 balance transfers on

1. Fixed rate for life of balance (I want to keep this as it's like a cheap loan)
   
2. 0% until 1st April
   
3. 0% until 1st May
   
   So I can pay 2 & 3 off right away - but I can't because anything I pay off comes off 1 as it is currently the highest rate
   
   So I have the money in the bank ready to pay off 2 & 3 but what date should I pay? Can't pay too early as I'll 'lose' the money off the wrong balance, can't pay too ate as I'll pay interest
   
   Help?

I'd pay on 2nd of April and May respectively. I've been in this situation before and it worked fine with no or a couple of pence interest

It's frustrating as I don't know how long the transfer will take - if I pay on 2nd & it take 3 days to arrive - that'll be quite a bit of interest (I'd have thought)

Are you paying from your banker transferringvthe balances to other cards. if you're paying it from your account, online, as far as i know all payments now go as faster payments, ie they arrive at the credit card the same day. That's been my experience at least

So I should be OK - I do worry about this stuff
