QUOTE(mamadox @ Oct 22 2010, 09:14 PM) CIMB balance transfer more attractive.. 0% for 6 months Just need to pay minimum 5% every month to enjoy 0% interest. They open separate account Let say transfer RM10,000 1st month = RM500 2nd month = RM500 3rd month = RM500 4th month = RM500 5th month = RM500 6th month = RM7500 i read the ocbc titanium BT terms too same as this pay min5% ONLY.... but better not use the card for any retail purchases until BT ends

just called Maybank, the 0% Balance Transfer for 12 month. They will divide the amount into 12 month, mean if your transfer 12,000 then each month you will need to pay 1,000. No processing fee

I saw the expired date on apr 2011, is that mean after apr 2011 it'll become normal rate ? or whoever applied balance transfer before apr 2011 will enjoy 0% interest ?

His statement is totally misleading and inaccurate. by transffering a BT account to another BT account just prolong the debt payment. The debts still need to be paid (in MBB case, 12 equal installemts).
