Do balance transfer.More worth it.Interest lower compared to personal loan.Now Maybank offers lowest interest rate.

Anyone here know what is the initial processing fee or "admin fee" for applying this balance transfer?

If unable to settle withink 6 months, what is the consequences and the following interest charges? still the same at 1.5% p.m.??
*
No admin fee or processing fee for Maybank.U just need to pay the interest only.

Is the interest charged is one time off or base on your balance? Ie. For eg transfer RM10k for 24 months with 0.375% = RM900?
*
If i am not mistaken, its RM900 for 24months. U divide into 24 months to pay monthly.It means u need to pay RM454.17 per month.

Ic.. What is the problem caused her to fail? Then what is her alternative?

They didnt tell y she didnt get the balance transfer.She got no choice, just continue with her current loan from StandChart & RHB with a higher interest rate.

Ic.. Why dont she try to apply other bank BT? although it is higher but it is definitely lower than CC interest right?
*
Standchart & RHB is balance transfer.But their rates is higher compared to Maybank.So she thought of merging 2creditcards into this Maybank so she no need to travel 2banks everymonth just to pay off the debts.

if i do balance transfer, let say 24 months plan, do i have to pay equally for 24 months or is it at least 5%?
*
U need to pay equally.U may pay 5% but the balance they will charge normal credit card interest.Which is 18% per annum.
