Help With Your Loans
We’re here to help.
We’ve introduced flexible options to help customers and businesses who may be experiencing financial difficulty, including loss of income, as a result of the spread of COVID-19.
Here are just some of the ways we can help:
- pause loan repayments for temporary relief
- option to switch to interest only loan repayments for a period of time
- make repayments more manageable with restructuring of existing loans and debt consolidation
- fees waived on loan redraw and top ups.
For those of you who haven’t been impacted by COVID-19 but may be paying more than the required minimum loan repayments each month, contact us if you would like to reduce your repayments to match your current interest rate.
We understand that with these uncertain times, you may need to make significant decisions to protect your customers, employees and your future. Our friendly team and Lending Specialists are here to help.
