I'm also taking OCBC loan. Whenever you pay extra, it will be automatically treated as "advance instalment" and cannot be withdrawn.
This is like you pay in advance for the monthly instalment in the future.

Don't worry though, because this extra payment will immediately save you interest. You can check your daily interest to confirm this.

Another type is "capital repayment", this can only be done through cheque deposit or over the branch counter. This will also immediately save you interest, but you can withdraw this by giving OCBC 3-day notice (minimum withdrawal amount 5k, and increments of 1k for my case).

Either way, you save the same amount of interest  nod.gif

Just a note, in online statement, your outstanding balance = total balance - accrued interest

Can that be done via online fund transfer?

I usually take up loan for shops n factories so any bank which can provide me BLR -2.45 is considered superb. And guess wat, I'm now nego w 1 bank for tat. The previous LO was BLR -2.4 few days ago. I think they can giv in s my track record with them is more than they can say perfect.

For resi loan, I'm sori cos I seldom look into tat.

Anyone know how easy to switch from normal term loan to full flexi loan? Any lawyer/agreement fees incurred by doing so? Currently 1 of my housing loan is not full flexi yet coz is under DIBS. Wish to switch to full flexi once VP but plan to stick with the same bank. Sorry for out of topic a bit.
