Hi all, I have been deciding between personal loan and Balance Transfer to clear my card off.

My debts are around 10k.. 6k(uob), 4k(mbb). Possible to do balance transfer? Still abit blur on how it works...

Hi

best way is to apply those cards which offer low 0% interest BT. You can refer to the spoiler on post #1. Eg of such offers are from BSN, Aeon, PBB

Let's say you got your PBB credit card. You simply email / fax them your request to BT your existing UOB / MBB credit card. Process is quite simple. I do it tons of time

and from my experience, PBB execution cycle time is one of the fastest

Hope this helps

Hi, thanks for answering. If I don't have a PBB card and go and apply for one. Is there a high chance of it getting approved? With my current debts?

I see.. But I only made one time late payment. And i never missed a payment apart from that one time. I though BT is made for people who wish to consolidate their debts. If they reject when I am going to use it for BT, then? What's it for? o.O

in your case, i think should be ok to get PBB approval

What Titan_Gunners is trying to say is, BT is like a wolf in sheep clothing

It may look innocent and helpful outside, but inside the bank knows that although there will be some who are wise enough to not fall into their trap, there are many more that will end up in more debts because of BT.

Main reason for that is, ppl will think they got tons of cash (which they don't have) and if they use the money saved from BT to spend on stupid expensive stuff that they can't afford, they are falling into the bank's trap because sooner or later you have to pay back the money you owe, one way or another and if you can't, then you are digging bigger hole than before

This is what the banks HOPE you will do, dig deeper holes so that they can earn more money

BUT if we are wise to utilize BT to save interest (and not getting into bigger debts), then we will be just fine

BT is normally between cards of 2 different banks

like for me, i have cards for rebates (UOB, Maybank Card2Card, OCBC) and i have cards for BT (PBB, BSN)

lol. I really like to earn money from banks drool.gif

Is this an error in post #1 for MBB below?

: Plan C - 12 mths, 3% fee, 0% interest/mth, Min - RM 1k per application
It shd be 1% interest/mth for 12 mths. I don't see any mention of 0% for 12 mths (3% fee) on m2u.

3% upfront, so not totally 0% for 12 months.

but still ok, since MBB split the BT into 12 months & charge each month accordingly.

what if my cc almost exceed credit limit and i would like to do bt from other cc, is that possible?

or have any suggestion to lower down my interest and also monthly commitment on cc?

thx
*
if let's say cc A almost exceed limit, you can't BT to cc A anymore. Normally bank will allow max 80% of available credit balance to BT

but if you have cc B with still got balance, you can BT cc A to cc B

Hi all,

A bit embarassed here cuz my question going to be basic question. haha

i am more familiar with the normal fix installment type of BT where the BT amount is chopped into fix amount and you pay evenly in all your BT months. And the banks normally will lump your retail spending + BT due for that month and you need to pay that full amount or else normal interest will be charged on the balance amount you settle

for the reducing interest method, i understand the more you settle earlier, the lower the interest you pay

my question is, i read through that for this reducing interest method, you have to be careful if they have separate account for BT and retail spending vs combine both as 1 account

can someone elaborate with examples how both type works?

thx
