Hi, just would like to share my experience as Ex-Akpk.

Always check with bank what is the latest outstanding amount, AKPK amount is just the amount that we submitted during enrol, it doesn't reflect the real situation.

Ya...what you say is true but still in my case only one bank difference by 2k whereas others within range
Usually AKPK will calculate and adjust outstanding balance by extra comfortably.
*
Then probably need to ask the bank to dig out all the details, normally i will refer CCRIS report on the outstanding amount, then when the amount is reduce till certain amount, then i will call bank collection department to request for early settlement. Hopefully you can resolve this issue with bank. Cheers

UOB cc - applied from sales agent, just cancelled after i got my VI & premier card

SC VI - applied from sales agent too after i got rejected from hsbc online application

Hi, how many % of HL you manage to get ?
Recently i do apply for HL too, but bank only approve 70%, and then approve CC for me as well. I tried before online application also all failed.

Yes, 80% is quite good already, and from this HL you can slowly build the credit record.

Hi guys...Have anyone skip 1 payment to AKPK? I’m in a very bad situation this month and have to skip this month...... sad.gif

I try before late payment but never skip, as i know if you fail to make payment for 2 times, your AKPK will be auto terminated and you need to go to office again to appeal / reapply it again.

The payment terms that is stated on the Offer Letter is by 30th of every month but there are months where I paid on 31st or 1st, so I was late for a day or two as my payday is not very on time at times. May I know if it affects anything?

I was not warned or anything, and everything is still looking pretty stable when I checked on the portal but I am just wondering, and a little worried.
*
I didn't get any reminder call from officer too when i late payment, as long you don't miss any payment for continuous 2 months then should be fine already.

Hi guys, I need some advise and help. I had several CC debt around 25k and missed 10 months payment due to jobless and some failed investment. But right now I'm able to do settlement in one time full payment for all the debt. I would like to know can I ask for waive on interest or some other agreement like letter of release from banks?
*
Are you in AKPK program? But i believe that your AKPK is already terminated since you have missed 10 months payments.

You should contact bank directly to negotiate as you would like to make full settlement, the final said is from bank whether any discount given.

my one... huh... hcbc provided restructured statement.. i really donno how they calculate it.  So confusing.
I asked the akpk and he said ya very confusing.. he said he will connect to the bank's akpk coordinator, yet coming back telling me that that is the amount.. oh fxxx
somemore ask me what is the problem... I told him again, how can that be.. I ask simple question

1. 10 years is the agreed contract that this is to settle my debt.  right??! he said yes
2. why now after 10 years, which i completed and hsbc still have over 5k ?!??!  he can't answer and said this is bank calculation.
3. if bank disagree that 10 year can't pay all and not agree with what akpk proposed as per contract, then the bank should answer back to akpk 10 years ago.  And yet akpk does not know.. how can that be??

I have no choice to meet other akpk consultant at main branch next week which I booked.

BTW, your case, where you raise your complain to?? BNM?? AKPK??  mind to share
*
How was your case with hsbc, any good news on that ?

Last time i do have HSBC in my list as well, and i notice interest is still charge per month although we are in AKPK program, so not sure is this the reason causes you still have higher outstanding. I didnt keep track for my record, i just base on CCRIS report to estimate how much i still owe then just contact bank to do full settlement.

AKPK Consultant just middleman....
Calculation still up to the bank..

i still have 2 debt based on my calculation need more than 10 years.

Reason when i check back.....
Amount by bank as compare to CCRIS report generated at that time differ by 2k.
if follow CCRIS report...should be settle within 10year...

just because amount differ by 2k....need extra months to fully paid.
i did the excel and it correctly point out that i need more than 10 years
the other debt is very low monthly payment....10year definitely cannot settle.
i guess at that time AKPK consultant maybe want to help me , so close one eye and force the other bank to take the offer.

Maybe you should do the calculation on excel and show them.
it is very simple formula.

Bank will always say their calculation is correct and AKPK cannot help you at all.
i intend to drag my repayment more that 10 years for that bank...hahaha with the help of AKPK consultant.

10year is not a short journey, try to cut some spending/increase income to settle it fast...else will get stuck cant take any finance to buy car/house, and no credit card as well...

Lucky got house...request for the monthly epf house every year.

Credit card for time being no need lo.
Happily using debit card....got money only buy..

Buy what you need and not what you want.
*
True, no credit card really will help to control spending...now i just keep my credit card as spare, once use it then immediate transfer money to settle it..
now have to be more careful, with current age mid of 30, cant afford to go into AKPK again sad.gif

AKPK is one time lifeline lo.
There is no way to enrol into AKPK anymore.

So it is better not to have credit card at all.
Even debit card can be use oversea lo.

Just before Chinese New Year this year...
I forgot to inform my debit card bank about me travelling to India.
I use debit card to pay my 1 week hotel stay at about 2k plus ringgit since the hotel no accept my cash USD  ..

So I will stick to debit card from now on.
*
Just know that AKPK is one time lifeline..then really have to be smart and wise now already, no chance anymore doh.gif ..

i never try to use debit card at oversea, most the time just bringing cash only...

Hope you can settle it soon and get free from this, not an easy time, but is a good experience for us.

Guess the consultant might ask you why you want to drag for more than 10 years since your repayment has been significant reduce compare to beginning biggrin.gif ..

My current salary is RM5,500 per month, the personal loan i need to pay RM1.1k every month, house loan 1k, and still got other commitment like family allowance car loan , and some credit card payment, so left the balance only RM500, i still havent deduct for the travelling expenses like petrol those. So, its difficult to survive if continue like that
*
You can discuss with AKPK on the amount to be pay, normally consultant will ask how much you afford to pay, they will design the plan for you, example : Bank A - 200, Bank B - 250, and so on and the instalment eventually will increase after 2/3 years as your income will be increase as well... but once you enrolled in already you must control your spending as well, due to your repayment has been reduce you might have extra cash, but better keep the extra cash with you for emergency purpose...all credit card will be cancelled and you no longer can apply any loan facility from bank

Is paying different bank even under AKPK program? I thought is like pay to a AKPK account with one repayment amount only xD

AKPK is just like middleman, you will pay total amount to AKPK, AKPK will then distribute it to different bank base on the agreed repay amount.

yes...you pay to AKPK who then distribute to banks which you have debts.
Example.
Maybank......RM100
RHB.............RM150
Alliance........RM200

total is RM450

Pay AKPK RM450 ...who then do the rest.
Easy right...

No need to deal with any banks anymore.
No more friendly call chasing you for payment.
*
Bank call isn't friendly at all, voice tone is high and sometime once pick up call they just straight away call your full name without address Mr/Ms, last time i refuse to pick up the call, then they send someone directly to my house and hand me the reminder letter, i guess this is their SOP before they want to take any legal action...

After i enrolled, i still recieve call from bank, then i just say i'm in AKPK already...after that no more call from bank...

Bank Call or Visitation definitely very stressful.
But once in AKPK program....AKPK is like magic word which make our debts like Sunshine again.
Yes...If our financial really messup....BIG Time.
AKPK is the ONLY solution to stop the ROT.

I was happily take any loan and new credit cards like no tomorrow.
Yes,...Rock and roll from cards to cards and to loan to loan.

Imagine...
Hong Leong keep calling and offer loan over the phone so easily.
Got multiple personal loan of Hong Leong .
Credit Cards.....RHB....Eon...Ambank....Maybank....CIMB....Standard Chartered...HSBC...MBF....Southern Bank

Imagine under AKPK paying RM2.1k at that time to pay off my debts.

Only Banks which i didn't apply is Public Bank,,,Affin and Kuwait.
*
True, i think both of us is at the same century/period, during that really very easy to get loan, especially when you have high credit limit, then bank will started to offer you very low interest loan by using the credit limit, i also taken few loan with bank, then use loan to cover loan, until fall into a big deep hole ...

which also contribute to massive medical bills.....and others unseen expenses.
it will really drain almost everything we had.
had to sell land..assets....as well.

by next year March,
i should have completed my 10 year ONCE in a lifetime program
but then i still have 2 debts which need further restructuring if possible
*
Guess AKPK could help for the remaining 2 loans, very soon you will free from all this.


QUOTE(alexkwlee @ Nov 13 2019, 09:33 AM)
wow Rm2.1k per mth... will it increase on following years or just keep on rm2.1k until end??
*
For my case, my repayment was increase about 300 every 3 years, because in normal situation your salary will be increase over the year and by increasing the repayment it will helps to clear the debt faster..but if you have early settle some debts then your repayment will be reduce as well..

We can pay more than the repayment amount if got excess money ma ?

If you got excess money just keep it with you and then perform early settlement with bank...sometime bank will give certain amount of discount if you perform early settlement....like my case, i settle the lowest outstanding once i receive my bonus..

As mention from MakNok above, if you pay higher repayment amount, the excess will only sit in AKPK account without any interest...

Hi,

Last Friday I received call from AKPK about their offer to help me manage my financial standing.
At first I wondered how they know my financial standing. Perhaps from BNM.

I have debt due to additional marriage cost (taken personal loan) and life after marriage (credit card). Quite struggling cos of staying in KL, paying alone all expenses including monthly pocket money to wife, study loan, car loan (taken few years before married), health insurances and other expenditure. All of that make me in debt zone.

I have like 3 credit cards at personal loan with total debt around 30k.

At monthly im struggling to pay any of them due to reason above.

Should I accept AKPK? One of most thing i concern about after future house loan that I want to take after my AKPK program ended.
I heard there will be blacklist but only during AKPK period. Will it be difficult to get loan after settle with AKPK?

THanks in advance.
*
AKPK didn't engage any external party to promote their service. What i hear from market is some external party act as AKPK agent then call customer and ask whether do they need any debt restruction service, and they will charge you certain % of service fee base on your total debt amount. They will ask you to pay using your credit card, and after you pay, they just bring you to AKPK office and let you do everything by your own. Means they charge you without doing anything ...

AKPK service is totally free, what you need to do just walk into any AKPK office, dont fall in any traps for this kind of so call AKPK agent.

Hi guys, my dad asking to be a guarantor for his loan. He has a shot loplt worth 800k, want to loan 500k from bank.
I want to know if incase business fail then can off set with the shop lot? Need to go through bankruptcy? It will affect my financial score or not?
*
I think your dad can use the shoplot to do refinance from bank, if your dad have stable income i believe it will be no issue from bank to borrow out the loan. If you be the guarantor eventually this loan will eat up your credit limit as this consider your liability as well. Definition of Guarantor is when the borrower unable to pay for loan, then bank will request payment from guarantor.

Hi everyone, I'm not sure whether this is the right place to post it but this is a debt issue but non akpk related.

So anyway, I'm trying to clear out my credit card debts. Last week, I received email from my bank saying that I'm enrolled into auto balance conversion which means they will turn my credit balance into 36 monthly installment at 13% ir.

As I have other commitment, I'm actually interested in following this programme which I think would help me reduce the burden. But I am not sure whether this is a good thing to do? Does anyone did this before? Any advices are appreciated.
*
This auto balance conversion is for your to save on the interest ( normal interest i believe is 18% per annum). However if you foresee you can settle this within 36 month then better dont take the program. Else you may need to check with bank do they charge you any cancellation fee if you want to make early payment. Similar as Flexi payment plan, where bank will have 1-2% upfront charges if you opt for 6/12 months installation, and t&c will stated early settlement will imposed cancellation fee of RM xxx.
