Features of a Teachers Mutual Bank personal loan

If you’re considering applying for this loan, here are some of the features that are on offer:

• No ongoing fees. There is an application fee of $150, but no ongoing maintenance or monthly fees apply to any Teachers Mutual Bank personal loan. As long as you make all your repayments on time and don’t overdraw the loan amount you will only have to make the interest repayments.
• Flexible repayment terms. Align your loan repayments with your pay cycle and make either weekly, fortnightly or monthly repayments.
• Ability to make extra repayments. You are able to make additional repayments without incurring a fee or penalty. This is a handy way to save on the total interest you pay by repaying the loan sooner. You must inform Teachers Mutual Bank in writing if you wish to increase or decrease your repayments.
• Low minimum loan amount. Loans can be from $4,000 to $80,000. Small loans are a good alternative to purchasing on credit cards, which generally have much higher interest.
• Free redraw facility. This allows you to redraw additional repayments at no charge so you can access any extra money you have already contributed to the loan. It gives you the best of both worlds by reducing your interest repayments and providing you with the flexibility to access the money should you need it in the future.
