Just to ask, can balanced trasfer those unstatemented transaction amount?
*
yes u can. pls check online for ur recent transaction and total of current balance.

Just curious, does balance transfer apply for outstanding installment by credit card but no outstanding payment??
*
yes. but early settlement of ur current installment being paid full in advanced might be charged with exit penalty, usually rm50.

If 12 mth plan for a Balance transfer, izzit better to go for it in CIMB or Alliance? just in case im scared im not able to clear the bill in 6 mths plan
*
for 12 months - its mbb, amex and alliance (alliance for current card holder only). its 0% fee.

for 6 months - cimb and pbb. also 0% fee.

cimb 12 months got 1% fee.
pbb 12 months got 1.5% fee.

QUOTE(prempenang @ Jan 12 2011, 11:53 PM)
will they approve a 4th bt application? since the other 3 still paying?
*
as long as ur CL available is higher than the BT amount, no problem.

QUOTE(ericpires @ Jan 13 2011, 09:21 AM)
So lets say if transfer to MBB? They will not give me a credit card to use and its just considered a loan repayment? or izzit better to stick to my current bank to slowly pay off and still got cc to use?
*
u need to apply the credit card 1st before can apply BT.

after the BT approved, its up2u want to use the card or not.
if u want to consider the BT as a loan repayment, so dont use the card.
but u still need to pay GST and annual fee (if applicable).

alliance bank BT 12 months 0% interest still available for new application? any link for that?
*
from what i know, its not for new application but for current card owner.

no link at their website coz the promo is printed ads sent together with statement to current card holder.

u can BT to another existing card, but must have enough CL remaining.

Balance Transfer newbie question:
must use billed outstanding amount to do Balance Transfer?
can use unbilled outstanding amount to do Balance Transfer?

unbilled is means today I buy an item for 10k, the transaction appeared in the internet banking 2 days later, but havent reach statement date yet...

so, can I directly go apply for balance transfer to another credit card?
*
YES can. if u BT more than current balance (outstanding + recent/unbilled), the card will have negative balance (as if u already pay more).

of course is inter-bank la, as bank will not so stupid allow BT within their own bank credit card only la. if u owe maybank money, maybank will never let u BT among ur maybank credit card as it reduce their profit. they want u to transfer the loan (ur outstanding balance on other bank) to them ma.
*
maybank credit card DO offer BT within maybank, but no 0% plan is offered.

got one question for MBB BT veteran.
lets say i have 10k CL, that would means i could use max 8k for BT. assume after i have paid few months, and the outstanding balance down to 5k, possible for me to make another 3k BT?

or i have to fully settle the 8k before i can make another BT?
*
YES u can.
as long as remaining CL is enough to do another BT.
this is applicable to all bank, not just MBB.

Can I do a BT for outstanding balance (0% installment repayment) from other bank to maybank? I was thinking to prolong my repayment period with maybank.
*
yes, BUT this mean u will finished paying early for ur current installment.

usually 0% installment plan have penalty fee for early termination, such as rm50 or rm100. check with ur bank.

why need to pay rm50 or rm100 to prolong repayment (extend another 12 months) if u can just finished current installment (let say 3 another months remaining)?

for MBB, the minimum RM1k BT is per card or per BT application?
*
per card of BT.

say u have 2 cards u want to BT to mbb, so each card must BT min rm1k.

The minimum amount you can transfer under the 12 month plans is RM1, 000.
You can transfer balance from up to three other banks at one time.
