Is 9.9% APR on a credit card the same as 9.9% on a fixed loan i.e £5000. Would u pay the same amount back over 3 yrs if u paid the same 36 * £££ every month?

cheers

Would imagine the interest / cpaital ratio on repayments is different but depends on conditions or credit cards.

If the amount borrowed and paid back is the same shouldn't make any difference. 9.9% APR is 9.9% APR.

You should be able to get a lower APR on a personal loan however.

Ask anybody in finance how APR works out! They get so confused :)
All banks use their own versions so its useless.

Plus you would think that equal APR borrowing over equal terms would mean that what you repay should be equal. Think again.
