My bad. But basically my question would be, "How can I 'use' this installment service?" because I'm not familiar with credit cards and installment, never tried before and will be using it for the first time
Definitely cheap but I don't wanna spend all at one go because I might need to use those moolah for emergency. Personal. hehe
p/s : paying the monthly $ is not the problem, only thing is how to get installment

I have to be upfront about this, sorry beating around the bush won't make you understand
1. The service you are asking is not credit card thus the reason you are getting roundabout answers. It's akin to Courts Mammoth system if I'm not mistaken. (I might be wrong) Likely Aeon will ask you to post payment on a regular schedule. In this case Aeon assumes the risk of you being a default vs. the bank if you are using a credit card.
2. Everyone who gets into huge debts will start from your sentence "I don't wanna spend all at one go because I might need to use those moolah for emergency. Personal." Sorry but I need to ask you to rethink your attitude (and have the right attitude) towards debt. Denial about "I won't get into debt" won't get you anywhere, it's the beginning of the problem.
It's not personal nor belittling your intelligence or judgement but I have seen my own friends having such attitude and 3-6 months down the road, the banks hound them for payment + they are in deep debt for the next 2 years. And they blame the bank for being tough on them. (Duh!) Many visitors to this thread had the same story.
Such may be true for business where liabilities is limited to the shareholding and any legal implication are limited to the company and not to the individual.
This involves personal finance, where legal / financial implication will hit the person/individual directly.
I have to agree with Gen-X. In certain shops you can even bargain if you are paying in cash. Save money .... that's a good reason (and good enough) for you right ? Your choice.
