easy. just pay in lump sum. can save the RM9k. [/sarcastic]

i must said that ptptn is actually quite flexible. you can repay any amount you like, as long as you're paying. but of coz, dun be dumb and pay below the interest! this is because ptptn will calculate the total amount that you havent pay + your interest.

ie:
Your loan: RM10k.
Interest for 2008: RM300 (RM300/12 = RM25 permonth)

If you don't pay for the entire year:
RM10k + RM300 = RM10300 <- The new total amount you owe.
Interest for 2009: RM309 <- You need to pay RM9 extra!!!

The above scenario is only for those who borrow RM10k. Just imagine the amount you need to pay if you borrow RM50k!

I would say, if you can afford it, pay more earlier. The faster you settle your loan, the less interest you need to pay. And please remember that PTPTN is giving a pretty long period for you to repay your loan (Mine is RM50k for 20years) Even car loan max is 9 years. So, think about it before complaining.

Just wondering, can we settle the PTPTN loan (full amount) using Jompay?

I think the FAQ did mention that you can only do that over the counter/office/branch.

even if you can..these kind of things better go branch face to face better...

Actually I went to the office, and the officer there said can pay online using e-FES. I already obtained the letter (with the total amount payable) from them. And the officer told me that once the payment is done, I just need to inform him about it. (via email or whatsapp. The whatsapp part a bit dodgy though)

Yes.

Not much of a investor myself, so I guess this is the best return I get.

I want to share my method of repayment.

Previously PTPTN offered 20% on total repayment, but I didn't have enough cash lying around.

This time around, they offer 15% discount for full repayment.

My current balance is close to RM 24k (total loan was RM 80k taken in 2006, began paying in 2010. My degree was RM 104k at the time, so I got the maximum 80k loan offered). I've been consistently paying off more than I should (for the last 1.5 years I paid RM 1500 monthly)

Currently HSBC has this offer - apply for a new credit card, and get RM 15k, at zero percent interest. Repayment is 10 months.[U]

For existing HSBC members, you can only get max 10k.

I already have a HSBC account and card (used that for balance transfer previously) so I will take up the Max 10k, add on extra RM 12-13k from savings (which is just lying there and not being invested), and pay off PTPTN.

Later, I will only need to pay RM 1 k per month to HSBC for the next 10 months and I'm CLEAR! No more PTPTN Loan!!

Usual loan repayment schedule is RM 460 for 20 years. I chose to pay off earlier since it is based on reducing balance. I did not opt for Ujrah, because I was paying off faster than the schedule. I also made sure to enjoy previous rebates of 10% given from previous Gov Budget.

Point here is, if you need some extra cash = apply for HSBC. THey have limited units remaining so it's something to consider. The card is either a HSBC Amanah Visa or HSBC Visa card (zero annual fee with minimum 12 swipes annually) but I also plan on canceling it as soon as I can because I already have 5 credit cards anyway.

Thats what I thought of... I pay using my cashback cc, then balance transfer to another cc with 0% interest and 0 processing fee with x months of repayment. But will this look bad on my ccris? hmm.gif

The ujrah is kinda like car loan. They calculate the total amount of ujrah that you need to pay and divide into monthly amount. So whether you pay more or less, you still will get the same amount for the ujrah. But you might be able to save some on the insurance though. (very minimal, probably few sens only)

If you do full settlement, then you don't need to pay the remaining ujrah. (thats what I understand la)

I think I will walk into your KL Sentral branch and just pay using Credit Card.

Then can get the letter already?  biggrin.gif

Nope. I did the same thing, and didn't get the letter on the spot.

Hi, I just settle all my ptptn few week ago, I been told i will receive the letter within 10 days, but i still not yet got my clearing letter.
*
I think they will release the letter after the monthly cycle completed. I guess it is for them to recalculate the monthly ending balance before they issue the letter.

For the letter, you can get it from PTPTN website once it is available.

What do you mean by pre-ujrah?

Before converting the conventional loan to ujrah...

Check your agreement or statement. The no pinjaman should be there.

I thought of this option too but my debt amount after discount is RM 42k. So, I have to split into few cards and BT into 12 months and 6 months.
I only have one 12 months option now.

Or else, I pay partially with EPF and BT the remaining. I will need to work on the budget.

Yea... better work it out. Else it will no difference from paying the 15% if the BT repayment is the same.

No news on the discount... so for those want to enjoy the discount, better clear it this month. (last month)
