Hi,

I need your opinion.

My salary net is 5.5k
and below are my commitments

Few CC total outstanding is RM50,000
Personal loan outstanding is RM40,000

Those commitments make me pay every month around RM3460

Apart from that I have house loan monthly is RM1912 (just started pay)
and car loan RM700 (around 4 years to go) balance is RM39,000

I would like to lower down my monthly commitment how can I do so? I can’t apply another loan as my commitment is very high.

Luckily my wife is working but can’t get loan under her name as she is from the Philippine. Her salary after epf and tax is around 3.5K.

Since I can get any loan with lower interest to pay those CCs and PLs, should I go to AKPK? what are consequences if I go to AKPK? or should I talk to those banks first?

Please advise me. Thanks.

monthly expenses

cc 1: RM700
cc 2: RM800
cc 3: RM500
PL1: RM800
PL2: RM360
car loan: RM700
house: RM1912 (not yet ready)

don't count wife's money cos i am on my own for all these commitments as I got this before i married her.

hence why need help to minimize the monthly commitment that I have

Ur credit card repayment is based on 18% finance charges per annum or under repayment scheme with much lower interest? May be still got chance for u to extend the repayment duration for settlement of capital owing and reduce the interest charges.

Since u got house, any chance for u to apply epf account 2 withdrawal as monthly repayment or downpayment for your house?

Btw, husband and wife should work out together to solve the financial problem. Once married ur problem will also become ur partner problem, ur condition at least still can to improve via ur wife assistant.  smile.gif

it still under 18%. i will try to go to those cc banks and get lower interest rate if possible.

i really hope so bro but wife is not cooperative at all and beside she has to send some of the money back to PH to give to her parents and siblings.

Ur credit card is the killer here. If I calculate this right,if the amount of cc 1 2 3 is min payment then total outstanding for all is +-40k.

Mann.... this is sky high bro. What did u spend bro? Sleep at golden hotel? Eat golden rice in golden resraurant?lol

For this case, u cannot do Balance Transfer.

Heres how. Hope this works. Knowing that u will pay 1.9k for house using ur salary. I suggest u go EPF withdraw ACC 2 for monthly installment up to 12months.
Roughly bout 23k. And park that 23k to ur housing account. Note!! DONT wrongly say i wanna pay for 12months installment. Tell the bank (home finansier) to park that money in advance payment/bucket. So later bank will eat 1.9k from the bucket for 12months.

Now, the 1.9k that u have from the salary, pay it to the cheapest CC 1st (cc 3) until RM0.00 and cancel it (cut it). Cc1&2: continue pay the minimum payment as usual. After cc3 already cut then, pay the 2nd lower (cc1) and cut it.

for 3rd card, then only u can do BT. Many bank offer 0% interest fee for 12months nowadays. So, do it onto ur cc3.

Wife must give ur support and encourage. Its fine if she dont want to give money help u pay. But at least she help in buying groceries...

thanks for your input bro! yeah I have tried to withdraw money from EPF but since the house is not ready yet so when the bank issue the letter it still stated "not yet performing full amount" and EPF wont disburse anything until they see the full installment started. gotta wait for another few months. once I got the money from EPF to pay monthly installment of the house, i will use that 1912 to pay one of the credit card till it 0.
