Whatever you want to do, if you're looking at an unsecured personal loan to help you do it, you may want to consider the unsecured personal loan from Westpac.

To take advantage of this offer, you cannot apply for the loan as a joint applicant.
Here's what you need to know about the personal loan to help you decide if it's right for you:
