Its very difficult to say what is the best rate now as the rate varies according to income level, tenure period, etc. from bank to bank. And NO. You cannot apply more than CC limit. Infact it will reduce your CC limit. For example, CC limit is RM6k. Apply to buy motorbike 5k. So CC limit reduce to RM1k. Anyway its always better to take personal loan. Safer and longer repayment period. Always choose a payment amount you are comfortable with. Don't let it spoil your payment record. If you owe credit card more than 2 month, changes of you to obtain a Personal loan is very slim. If you want to know more about personal loan. Contact me directly at 012-5802447. I'm a loan officer.

1.  No, I disagree with u that u can't get a personal loan more than your CC limit.  A limit with 0% utilization has no bearing whatsoever on the Debt Service Ratio or LRR ratio evaluated by the bank.

2.  Having an outstanding balance on your on-us or off-us credit card is a different issue alltogether.  Obviously that will have a bearing on your credit standing and the quantum of the loan approved. 

3.  Not all banks charge based on risk based pricing like Stan Chart, for example.  Some banks charge a flat rate irrespective of income level, tenure or whatever.  So - I suggest customers really shop well. 

4.  Lastly, It is misleading and a bit sweeping to say that it is "safer" to take a personal loan.  It depends on one's objectives.  Let's face it - the interest you pay on your Personal Loan is going to be way higher than a credit card, once u convert it to an effective rate.  It's just that most customers do not know what the heck a flat rate is.  However, if u r talking about cash flow mgmt - then I agree with you.  The monthly repayment on a p.loan can be more manageable as the loan tenure stretches up to 5 years or longer. 

PS - i'm not a sales agent.  So, i'm not in competition with anyone.  Just stating my points.

1. Maybe I din explain myself well enough. I did not say you cant get a personal loan more than your CC limit. I'm saying if you are using your credit card to make installment, you cannot apply more than your CC limit.

2. Yes, this is obviously what I'm talking about. If you owe the bank an outstanding more than 2 months. You are simply telling the bank I'm not a good paymaster. So changes of you getting a PL is almost near zero.

3. Like I said earlier. It varies from bank to bank. But do keep in mind. Every bank has its pros and cons. I would say choose the bank which suits your needs best.

4. Yes. manage cash flow and liquidity. When i mean safety, I mean feel confortable paying the amount every month without having to starve yourself to pay back. There is flexible tenure which like said earlier 5 years or longer unlike credit card only 1 year. And if you are unable to pay the outstanding later convert to interest rate of a whooping 17.5%. However, banks do offer rates which are way lower than CC even after converting into effective rate. Like what you said. Customers really just need to shop well.

Yes, very detail explanation on the CC. You basically have given a clear explanation on that.

Example of banks which offer low effective rates are like OCBC, Stand Chart. Some effective rates are affected by tenure period, the flat rates of course and the loan amount. But as far as I know, these rates are only offered to super high income earners.

i saw one promotion HSBC Amanah, what is "Termasuk Sumbangan Takaful" and "Tanpa Sumbangan takaful"? i know one are cheaper repayment if compare both.

Some loans are inclusive of Takaful coverage while some are not. Takaful is a form of an Islamic insurance concept. It basically protects you and your love ones in the act where you are unable to repay the loan due to death or temporarily permanent disability.
