PBB Quantum's Flexipay (12 months @ 0%) is the best. very good to convert big-amount transaction into installments. yes, you pay the bank.

i've done it many times with PBB Visa Signature (9 months @ 0%) and also Quantum's 12 months @ 0%. from buying electrical items to kitchen cabinet to eye surgery  biggrin.gif

hi there... so i have this question in mind i thought i might as well ask here since you got the experience. Do PBB charge any "processing fee" for the Flexipay?

per transaction.

e.g. buy electrical appliances (e.g. fridge, TV, etc.) from merchant A with amount RM2k, swipe with PBB card, then after 3 days, call PBB to convert that RM2k into 9month Flexipay.

advantages: good for single large sum transaction. no additional fees. simple call-in to CS, done in 1 minute. if you have multiple flexipay done, you can also BT your upcoming statement to another card, further extending the period (e.g. BT to MBB's 12mth 0%).

disadvantages: not by statement (for this, you do BT instead), need min RM2k for 9month 0% flexipay, tricky when your purchase is near bill date (T&C: 3 days after transaction, 5 days before bill date).
here's what's shown in the statement:

choose those Flexipay plans with 0%! here's how it works..

Note: Quantum need only RM1.2k for Flexipay 12mth 0%. Other PBB cards need RM2k for Flexipay 9mth 0%.

1) swipe a big amount from a merchant.
2) after the transaction got posted (about 1-3 days, varies from merchant to merchant), call PBB CS to convert to Flexipay.
3) next day, you'll see the original amount will be "reversed", then 1st installment amount charged.
4) in your statement, it will show the Installment # count and remaining installments. Every new statement, the # count will increase, the balance will reduce.

Final installment:

Please correct me if I'm wrong. The EPP for PBB Quantum is regardless of any merchant and any mode of payment (online spent and physical card swipe), yes ?

If it is, I might apply for it as well. hmm.gif

Does it impact on the card limit?
Or does the card even have limit?

Like let's say, card credit limit is 20K.

Buy stuff RM12K on January.
Asked for installment RM1K for 12 month.

So Credit limit on January, left RM8K?
And on February, credit limit become RM9K left because we already settled that RM2K already?
