Main points to consider about Bank of Melbourne Secured Car Loan

This personal loan offers a lowered interest rate, because your car is accepted as security. To qualify for this competitive rate, the vehicle used for security can't be more than 12 years old when the loan expires. It needs to be registered under your name and if the vehicle is under joint names, then both names need to be registered.

You can choose a fixed interest rate, knowing that your repayments won't change during your loan term. Or you could pick a variable interest rate, where you will be able to make extra repayments every month. The type of interest rate that suits you best depends on your financial and personal situation and whether you'd like peace of mind, or if you have the capacity to make extra repayments.

Features of the BoM Secured car loan

  • Interest rate. The standard variable rate starts from 6.49% p.a. and fixed rate from 6.49% p.a.
  • Loan term. If you opt for a variable rate loan, the loan terms is 1 to 7 years. For the fixed rate, it is 1 to 7 years.
  • Loan amount. Borrow from a minimum of $3,000 and a maximum of $80,000.
  • Repayment options. Choose from weekly, fortnightly and monthly repayments, depending which frequency suits you best. As mentioned before, if you opt for the variable rate, you can make extra repayments.
  • Redraw facility. Only available on variable rate loans - access your extra repayments if you need them for an emergency.
  • BoM Internet banking. With the demand for mobile banking increasing day after day, BoM's Internet banking means you can track and manage your loan repayments at a time that suits you best. You can also opt for e-statements, reducing your footprint on the environment.
  • Optional protection. By opting for Consumer Credit Insurance, you can protect your repayments should something happen and you're not able to meet your financial commitments.

Fees

  • Establishment fee. $250 establishment fee applies.
  • Monthly admin fee. $12 per month. This fee is charged to maintain your accounts.
  • Dishonour fee. $9. If your payment is late or missed, this fee is charged. To avoid this fee, set up direct debit or a reminder so you never forget to pay.
  • Redraw fee. $10 per withdrawal. Please note that the minimum redraw amount is $500 and is only available for the variable rate option. You can avoid this fee by not using this feature.
  • Discharge fee. $100 to $150. You are charged $150 if the loan is repaid within the first 12 months. If it is repaid after the first 12 months, the fee is $100. You can avoid this fee by not paying your loan out early before the loan term.
  • Break costs. This is payable on early payments or additional repayments for the fixed rate option. You'll need to contact BoM directly to find out what this cost is, as it depends on your loan situation and your outstanding principal.
  • PPSR fee. $6 PPSR fee (applies only if purchasing and securing against a vehicle).

Hi Winnie,


Thanks for your question.


Please note that finder.com.au is an Australian comparison site and we only compare products issued in Australia. In most cases you’ll need to be an Australian resident or hold a relevant Visa to be eligible for the products we display.


You may be able to use the BoM secured car loan to pay off your son’s car but there will be conditions attached to this. It’s recommended that you discuss your eligibility or options with BoM, please get in touch with them directly by clicking on ‘Go to site’.


Cheers,

Shirley
