The terms of your financing were disclosed in the documents that you signed when you agreed to take advantage of the interest free period. I agree that, as a courtesy, they should have sent you a reminder prior to the end of the interest free period but yes, you are supposed to remember.
These finance companies/banks make a lot of money on these types of "interest free" loans due to people not remembering the terms of the agreement.

- In one word..YES.
To expand on this, they do inform you. Now it isn't a singing telegram with flashing neon signs, but it is in your statement that you receive every month. They also didn't just "charge" you this interest. This interest has been charged from day one..it has just been "accrued". As such I would also bet that if you go back and look at your bill you will see a separate column for this "accrued" interest. But even if it wasn't there you knew you bought this under a special promotion and should have realized it was coming due soon and if you had any questions to contact them.
Now, I will say one thing that accidents do happen. So if you call them up and in a professional tone(ie no screaming or yelling). Say you missed the final payment because you somehow didn't know. I have heard that SOMETIMES if you make the full payment of the remaining promotional balance right then they will waive the additional interest. Of course this is no guarantee. It also brings up the point that if you can't do that..then it really wouldn't matter if they notified you or not now does it?

You can try and dispute it, but I bet the end date of the promotional period is on your monthly bills. Might want to check that before you make a fool of yourself. They have every right to charge the full interest if the bill wasn't paid in full by the end of that period. It's standard practice.
