The T&C says you still need to pay finance charges as long the amount due is still not cleared, right ?

Agreed ! That's the term I heard from HLB regarding about other balance transfer program but they didn't mentioned anything about the revised interest rate applied if we didn't manage to clear the outstanding balance. unsure.gif

Bro,

I already give scenarios to test my understanding their one time interest thing twice and both gave me same answer

Since I dont have hlb cc, I can't confirm in real situation which is correct

Would appreciate any lyn members with real experience pls share

I called up earlier just now but when I asked them about this promotion - they only offered me with the existing promo plan ranging from 6 - 12 months with the interest rates starting from 0.5% - 1% per month. Will this promo entitled for new HLB credit card subscriber ?

Came across 2 offers of BT plan from my UOB Credit Card agent :-

1. 6 months repayment with 0% interest rate applied
2. 12 months repayment with 1% interest upfront payment applied.

Sounds reasonable aite ? smile.gif

Can you further elaborate? For #2, is it 1% upfront and 12 months 0% interest BT?
*
According to what she mentioned to me yesterday, an example of the following :-

- Balance transfer amount of RM4,000
- 1% Upfront payment which is RM40
- Total will be RM4,040 and divided 12 months repayment, must be punctual if not it will be revert back to the ordinary credit card interest rates.

The problem if UOB doesn't provide a separate BT account , you cannot use the UOB CC as the BT balance will incur interest charges every month if you settled all retail purchases on time doh.gif

Just be careful.  whistling.gif  whistling.gif  sweat.gif  sweat.gif

Hmm .. I guess this is what happened to my HLB CC whereby the BT amount will fall under one account and interest rates will be charged from time to time without my notice. Compare to the CIMB of mine, its a totally different approach .. sweat.gif

Should avoid BT program which lumps the BT amount + Retail amount in same CC account  shakehead.gif
