Hi, would like to ask the MBB BT for 0% 12months. Does they accept to transfer my other bank's BT account ?
For what I know is CIMB can do that. How about MBB? Thx.

I also get 0% BT from citibank....According to citibank staff, the 0% BT is only for those selected customer. So, the only way is you need to call them see whether you are in their list. good luck.
By the way, yesterday just receive the statement and the BT amount is mixed with my normal transaction. So, I dont know how much should I pay from month 1 to month 5?

digilife, the 0% BT is not a new to the market. CIMB Bank have such promotion since 2, 3 years ago (if not mistaken).
So, citi only offer for selected customer and only certain period. It is not kind enough smile.gif

haha....is ok, I just share with you. Nowadays home loan interest is based on the reducing balance. Means that every month, the interest is based on the outstanding.
But, usually the personal finance is flat, e.g car loan. interest is calculate based on the initial amount
you can try to google search and download the mortgage calculator and play it.
4.2% reducing balance is not equal 4.2% flat. thx.

4.2% reducing balance ~ 4.2 effective rate
4.2% flat rate ~ 8.4% effective rate

Conclusion hlb ~12% effective rate where housing loan ~4.2%effective rate

Right....Yeah man...
Just for sharing , for those who plan use the 0.5% flat personal loan to settle home loan is not worth, just my 2cent, decision still on your hand biggrin.gif

bro, I also got apply this 0% BT promotion on feb 2012 and my statement came already.
The BT amount is mix with my normal retail transaction. I dont know how much I should pay in order not to get penalty charges.
So, I called up the CS and the shit Yestin give me the answer is the only way to avoid penalty charges is I need to pay full amount.
Means I need to pay full of my retail transaction + the BT full amount.
What the fu*k question? what is the meaning of 0% 6months BT ?
do you have any idea ?

Not sure on this...since i've been reading that some of the cc holders get the offer by receiving phone call from CS....
so i just try luck by approaching them instead....let me receive another call from them tomorrow first....i'll update here again...

Updated on 11.06am 18 Feb

The officer named Mark called. Double confirmed with him that the BT 6mths I'm having is 0%.

Updated on 11.35am 18 Feb

Another officer called in to process this. Give me hear the T&C, re-verify the amt, the account #
Ta daa.. "BT will be completed in 5 working days. However we will expedite it for 3 working days."
Info gotten --> 5% min payment, u must settle the total BT in 6th mths.
                --> the BT info will appear in Mar'12 statement
                --> payment that you made will be clear by hierachy. Eg --> You deposit $ into your cc account, it will be clear in sequence as --> Finance Charges, Retail Charges, EPP then only BT

So i consider i already get this 0% 6 mths BT to CitiBank cc  icon_rolleyes.gif

Updated on 20 Feb

BT details being reflected in my e-statement....very efficient....

Bro, I also got applied this 0% 6-months BT with reducing balance.
The call centre staff, En. Wafi confirmed with me that I just need to pay 5% of BT outstanding amount in first 5 month, then 6th month pay in full.
And my statement already arrive. The problem is the BT amount is mix with my retail transaction which mean in one same statement.

And yesterday and today I just call the call centre and you guys know what is their answer?

They inform me even now i pay minimum amount, I still will kena financial charges this month.

My feb 2012 statement:
- normal transaction is total RM200
- The bt amount is RM20K

based of my understanding, I just need to pay RM200 in full + the RM1000 (20K * 5%) = RM1200 (it can avoid financial charge)

But, what the CS told me was even though I pay minimum payment, I will still got financial charge unless I PAY FULL???

what was that ? fu*k....then what is the meaning of 0% BT ??????

Not enough credit limit for BT ??

No, I just BT 80% of my AEON Card limit. My CCRIS very healthy and I never make late payment. I already send email and shoot them and hoping they can give me good reason.
Else, this is the good sharing if you guys plan to use their 0% BT plan, its something like cheaing.
