Does anyone take IDFC First Money Credit Line?

[dhiraz]

I Have a Pre-approved ₹2,23,000 IDFC First Money Credit Line something different from Personal Loan

Instant ∙ Zero paperwork ∙ Zero pre-payment penalty ∙ Withdrawal as many times as you like

Flat 1% processing fee per Withdrawal

@ 17% monthly reducing interest per annum

EMI upto 48 Months

I Just Checked The Option in My IDFC Mobile Banking App After Checking Continuously Receiving Call From IDFC Saying You Can Activate This Credit Line Only for 5k After Activate Do Pre-payment The Credit Line will be Activated For You In the Future You Can Use This Credit Line

Anyone Here Used This Option Please Share Your Experience Should I Activate This Credit Line Currently I Have No Need for Any Kind of Loan but This Thing is Different From Loan and Similar Like Over Draft

instead of this go for loan on credit cards if you have a pre approved offer
the interest rates range from 11-13%
or if you have a home loan ask for a top up on it

Never taken a loan on credit card. How do banks report this to bureaus? Another loan account or no reporting at all?

no reporting at all
no paperwork instant disbursement
and if you have good relations with bank you can get loans at 9-10%
and some banks block a part of your credit limit
some disburse over and above the card limit

Can it simply exist as a "credit line"? I.e., a credit limit without any interest as long as there are no withdrawals?

Oh, got it. I was talking about "FIRSTmoney". Just realized they say "Direct to bank account", so it's not a credit line in the way I was thinking...

@ 17% monthly per annum ?

What was the emi quoted & APR ?

How that monthly reducing interest works ; any good calculator website ?

Btw what if you pay before 1st emi date ; so bank makes money on processing fees since no prepayment penalty ?

Finally can non-idfc customer apply as standalone personal loan ?
