What's the real experience of paying off your PTPTN loan, salary deduction vs lump sum?

Honestly the salary deduction confused me at first because it started automatically and I didn't know the amount was reasonable. Log in to your PTPTN account, check your exact outstanding and the deduction rate, you can actually negotiate or adjust the repayment schedule if it's too heavy on your salary. Don't just let it happen blindly. Also if you graduated with first class honours, older schemes converted the loan to a scholarship (full exemption), check if you qualify for any exemption or discount, some people don't realise they're eligible. Free money if you tick the box.
