[quote=MilesAndMore,Oct 15 2010, 11:26 PM] available balance should be calculated daily, it's your total credit limit - all your outstanding balance (posted and non posted transactions) [/quote] Certain banks will only release the total hold amount until you have fully paid up the installment. [/quote] I am quite noob about these stuff. It's really confusing..... for example my card limit is 5k. This amount is monthly limit right?

QUOTE(ronnie @ Oct 16 2010, 12:26 AM) Not a monthly limit... BUT as long as you pay up in full then the answer becomes yes. So basically you are saying if i took a installment plan for good purchase which cost RM5k for 12 month, until i finish these installment i will not be able to buy anything else right?

QUOTE(ronnie @ Oct 16 2010, 01:55 AM) Some banks will slowly release the monthly payment back as credit limit, some banks will hold the amount until you fully settle it. so you have any idea what Maybank does? cause my CC is from Maybank. i have read somewhere that CC limit is times 2x your income right? but what odd is i have declare my income 8k per month yet they put my limit 5k?

QUOTE(siutimtim @ Oct 16 2010, 10:12 PM) i think their policy in granting cl is not how much you declare lo declare then give only la.. if like that a 2k fellow declare 10k/month then impossible the bank also give 30k cl ma just because he is clean.. a big no lo... they normally have min cl for a card and if higher then will base on the old card one lo not just declare. I have submitted the documents that is require for Tax. forgot what it's called already. So based on that documents my average monthly income is 8k.

QUOTE(chemistry @ Oct 16 2010, 11:11 PM) Could it be caused by heavy credit burden in your CCRIS profile? How much car loan/home loan are you taking? currently i am taking a shop loan around 400k. Could this be the reason?
