If lets say I have a 500k loan, and I directly transfer 500k cash to the loan but I didn't go to the bank to settle the loan, what will happen next month? Do I still get charge for interest ? reason for asking this is because I would like to avoid interest from the loan as much as I can, and indirectly I still have some cash ready in the loan for withdrawal incase of any emergency.

I think in your case, u still need the money at any of moment of notice.  Better just pay extra till oustanding principal balance left rm1k..  then stop paying..  4%@ 1k is only rm40 annual interest.. .. some donation to bank..

this seems like a good idea, anyone know how much is the minimum principal amount I need to keep in the loan? for example if I left the balance as Rm100 would the bank come force me to settle the loan?
