QUOTE(SKY 1809 @ Jun 19 2008, 11:03 AM) You do get a rebate and it could be calculated by a standard special formula. The banks earned more interests on earlier years then ( more weight on it ) than later years. Diff from housing loan which is on reducing balance method. Sorry i lost the formula. Should get back to you once I have it. Or else contact your banker to confirm. You will definately get a rebate from bank. example if you borrow $35k nine year for 4% interest, that mean each year interest is $1400, if you early settlement for 3 year, the bank will give u rebate $4200. However, if you have housing loan, advice to dump your money to settle the housing loan.

QUOTE(SKY 1809 @ Jun 19 2008, 11:36 AM) Are you sure ? I do not think banks are so generous to get you back RM 4,200. Correct me if I am wrong. This is what i get when i made early settlement of my car loan previously, the bank used the above formula to calculate the rebate on my full settlement amount. Last time i early settle my car loan for 2 year, they discount back the 2 year interest on my full settlement amount.

QUOTE(Jean72 @ Jun 19 2008, 03:15 PM) I am sure you will have to pay certain penalty fee. I did that before. From my understanding, if you made full settlement on first or second year, the bank maybe will charge u penalty (still depend on your loan T&Cs), for my case did not have any penalty charge coz my loan is already >3 years.
