Why shouldn't I avail my sudden need for cash through a 'cash advance' on my credit card?

Your credit card can be an option, but withdrawing cash using a credit card can turn out to be very costly if you do not repay it quickly. Interest rates on credit card cash withdrawals can go as high as 40 per cent on an annual basis depending on the type of card you use and you also do not get the interest free period to pay back. In short, interest is charged from the moment you withdraw the cash. There is also an additional transaction charge that is levied on the withdrawal at the ATM. In comparison, a Personal Loan is cheaper and the repayment can be spread over a long period.
