If the available credit limit can exceed the maximum credit limit provided by the bank, then as illustrated by my example above, one can BT more than the maximum credit balance.

yes, its possible and i have done that with MBB.
To answer your question, it is ii) 15k x 80% = 12k.



bearbear it make sense to pro long the payment period with same amount of money, consider below scenario.

assuming zero outstanding, no new transaction, and allow 100% of available CL to be used for BT for ease of explanation.

MBB CC CL is 5k, and deposit 7k cash into it, so the available CL is now 12k (with 7k credit in the account).
If we BT 12k from other bank to MBB for 12 mths plan, effectively the monthly repayment is 1k, since we have 7k in credit, we do not need to pay single sen for 7 months.

Whereby had we BT 5k to MBB and paid the 7k cash to other CC, we will have to pay RM416.67 (5000 / 12) every month to MBB CC.

Bro,

If we do like what you have suggested,

Can we still use the -7K credit balance in the card ? Or that amount will be locked after we applied balance transfer ?

Thanks !
*
indirectly consider locked, because in above scenario, the available credit limit for spending is zero.

If it is possible to exceed the approved credit limit for BT, is there a limit to how much it can exceed the limit? Is it 105% of CL or some other limit?
*

Share my experience to deal with HLB BT without Penalty

20 Apr, BT 6K to my SA - picture BT1
15 May, make 1st payment, 320 - picture BT2
15 Jun, make 2nd payment, 290 - picture BT3
27 Jul, make 3rd payment. 270 - picture BT4
15 Aug, make 4th payment 260 - picture BT5, with reminder "special interest rate expires on 13 Oct 2017"
17 Sep & 9 Oct make payment 250 & 4500 - picture BT6
14 Oct make settlement 111, extra paid RM1 - picture BT7

Latest statement on 14 Nov 2017.......no penalty.

For forumers who settle your BT on the "special rate expire date", u will/may need to pay early settlement fee RM70.

If we take up maybank balance transfer plan and the fund transferred to Stanchart credit card and stanchart does not allow excess payment to saving account, only can only return the fund to source, ie maybank credit card, anyone have experience to get maybank to transfer the fund from credit card to saving account?

For MBB BT application via M2U, is it unusual if no reply on the application status was received after more than 2 hours?

I read from previous posts here that it's quite fast to receive an email indicating "approval in principle". Or is it me being paranoid (this is my first BT)?
*
yup, seems to be the case for now.
like what you said, it used to be pretty fast, but I did a BT last night, until now still haven't got the approve in principle email.

updated: just received SMS around 630PM saying STP request for BT appl is approved. but still no email though.
