Pbb win hands down"

Can share why Pbb better than Rhb? Thx

Their bt can say never have any stop gap (always there) + processing is fast (faster than rhb or not I not sure)

2) whats the problem with BT Payments via giro? isnt that faster ?

1) 80% of available credit
2) don't get what you mean

Hi bros need help!

I have applied to mbb previously for my BT, but took a long time no reply so I applied to hsbc which they approve within 2 working days. then 1 day later MBB told me they approve my BT also. I tried to call cs to ask MBB to cancel it they say cant as the application is already approved. what should I do now?? I dont want to be paying for 2 BT interest!

Thanks guys

just treat this as a lesson learned

btw, next time call the bank to ask why BT no news before you do anything

hsbc said they have already disburse the money, can't do anything from their side. they ask me to call the credit card that im transferring from to reverse the payment. then i call the cc they say they havent receive anything yet, and should ask hsbc to stop payment. im just worried if i cancel one of them, will i be charged the interest? coz I took the 3% fee bt. if they gonna charge me even if i cancel then i'll end up paying 6%!

don't know about u all, this is my first time doing a b/t and it seems applying to various banks seem like not a good idea after all.

i can't understand the logic once we apply and they approve, then cannot cancel d / need to pay the interest if want to cancel. not like mortagage where u can decide to accept their offer / credit card where u need to activate it only considered u accept. bt - once approve i must accept??
*
like what ronnie had said, when you submit BT application, considered your side approved already

anyway, treat this as a lesson for you for future BT. i myself also made some mistake in the past (not this kind of mistake though), just learn from it and don't repeat in the future

Well...the whole point of applying for BT is that you are running out of credit and you cant pay....so you wanna BT it to another bank. Now here is my scenario

1) CIMB - 29k current BT - i want to transfer this out
2) SCB - 8K - i also want to transfer out

not sure if public can give me 37k BT for 0%
*
not all do BT because they can't pay. at least a lot of ppl i know (including myself) do BT to save interest for other loans

eg i have a flexi bank loan with interest of 5% PA. instead of withdrawing from the flexi loan to pay off my cc which the bank will charge me that 5% upon withdrawal, i choose to do BT with 0% interest, so i can save paying interest

btw, the amount you owe is quite high and unless you control your spending / debt, BT will only delay your problem, not to solve it

so, if you successfully do BT with 0% interest, good but cut off your credit card until you can control your swiping

P.S. if you have available credit with pbb of at least 47k, then you can bt

Hi all,

Newbie here, just a question on how to cash-out the money after doing BT. For etc.

RHB BT 10K
PBB  BT 10k
AEON BT 10k  ---> Total of 30K to CIMB CC ACCOUNT.

How do I withdraw the money? Using ATM ? Any charges for withdrawer?

Any bank gv 0% BT other than PBB RHB AEON? UOB used to gv.....

Am thinking to take all the cash and put into my flexi loan account.
*
never tried but i think there is a cash withdrawal fee still charged. maybe won't charge you interest

btw, how much u owe cimb anyway?

Hi all,
Need some clarification regarding the 80% CL when doing BT. Is the calculation below correct?

Maybank CC credit limit: RM12k
Amount owed with Maybank: RM10k

Rhb CC credit limit: RM 6k
Amount owed with RHB: RM 0

Desired BT to RHB amounting to RM 6k (Possible?) Since only 80% of CL permitted to do BT which is equivalent to RM 4800?
*
for mbb, you can BT max rm1.6k (80% of rm2k)
for rhb, rm4.8k

Thanks for info.

Another question in mind is that, let's say I do BT of RM1.6k(MBB) to RHB and the new MBB balance is RM8.4k, is it possible if I do another BT to RHB(on the same CC which I did BT) again which is RM 2880 2/3 months after the first BT?
*
i am not sure if you understand the concept of BT or not

from my 1st reply, it means you can ask MBB to pay another other bank acc max rm1.6k which means if successful, you will now owe MBB 11.6 (10k + 1.6k)

Thanks.

Hi sifus

for RHB bank BT, use which way to submit the request and they can process more faster?
submit the form via their website or thru banker ?
*
no experience with RHB

normally my experience with other banks, best to scan the form and send by email

certain banks will ask for your credit card statement as BT document

so if you owe nothing to CIMB, you have no cc statement to apply BT

Do a BT from CIMB to Public Bank. Public Bank Balance Transfer program does not require any CC statements. Most other banks require CC statements for BT application. So in theory, I reckon it's possible for you to do that.  drool.gif

yes, pbb doesn't need cc statement but most bank need them

Credit Limit between cards issued by the same bank is combined. e.g. You have 2 Maybank CC, their combined limit is RM10k.

For your purpose, you can apply for RHB or HLB card, BT your AEON outstanding there, and then balance transfer your HSBC & CIMB outstanding to AEON.

Just one example.
*
Just to add to this

1) Personal loan is last choice due to high interest rate
2) Not sure if this is the right term, but in principle you only have 1 BT "account" per bank irrespective how many different cards you have with the same bank

suggest that except AEON cc, the rest you BT to Aeon. The amount you owe Aeon i suggest you pay it off with cash

then apply other cc for BT purpose. I personally would suggest BSN although they don't have 0% BT because of low min BT amount requirement
