Finance with Apple

Has anyone used this? If so how was it?

I keep looking at the Asus 13" variants but I'm consistently drawn to a 15" MBP.

If I went with one I'd probably go for the finance option.

It's not particularly cheap at all and they can be very fussy. When the 0% deal is running obviously it's different but it's not on all the time.

best to get it on a credit card, either with 0% on purchases, or do a balance transfer to a 0% card and pay it off that way.

I bought my first macbook using Apple finance (MBNA) and from what i remember it took a while to set up but was easy enough. But honestly if you don't have the cash to buy one i would use or get a credit card (0% if possible) as they're a lot easier to manage eg. pay off faster and generally cheaper.

I agree if you can't save up for the cost of it then get a personal loan/credit card rather than buying on finance its 36 months on about 15% APR which makes the computer very expensive.

I have it on a MB, MBP and a 27" iMac.

Got about 3k of credit from them no problem.
