If you want to protect yourself from future interest rate rises and love the idea of knowing exactly how much you’ll need to repay each month, AMP's fixed rate loan is an ideal option. There are a range of fixed terms (1, 2, 3 or 5 years) available and you can choose from a number of flexible repayment options including weekly, fortnightly or monthly to suit your financial situation. You can also borrow up to 90% of the property value.
With AMP fixed rate loans, you can make fee-free extra repayments of up to $10,000 p.a.. But if you’re the type of borrower that may need to dip into those extra repayments at a later date, keep in mind that you won’t have the luxury of a redraw facility with AMP fixed loans, so you might want to consider taking up AMP’s split rate home loan option which will allow for redraws on the variable portion. As for fees, there are no application or ongoing service fees, but you will have to account for a legal fee, a settlement fee and a discharge fee.

If you're after more flexibility without the added features of a home loan package, then a standard variable rate home loan from AMP may be worth considering. The Essential Home Loan comes with an LVR of up to 90%, which means it caters to borrowers with a smaller deposit. As for features, you'll have a range at your disposal, including the ability to make an unlimited amount of extra repayments for free, access a redraw facility (minimums apply), and split your loan into fixed and variable rates. There's an upfront legal fee and a discharge fee to budget for, but zero application or ongoing service fees to worry about. AMP will also help cover the cost of your valuation fee (up to $900).

AMP offers two fixed home loan packages: a Basic Package for loans starting at $40,000 and a Professional Package for people who are looking to borrow more than $100,000.
On the Basic Package there are no monthly account fees, and for loans up to 90% LVR, you won’t have to pay any loan establishment fees. The AMP Professional Package includes a discounted interest rate but there's a yearly service fee attached. Both loans allow borrowers to make extra repayments without penalty (up to $10,000 p.a.); however, you won't be able to access those payments once you've made them, as there are no redraw facilities available with either package. That said, because both offers come with the option to split your loan, you could potentially access more flexible features via the variable rate portion of your loan (including a redraw facility and an offset account).
With the Professional Package, you may even be eligible for the AMP Master Limit - a pre-approved lending limit that is available for you to use for any investment needs in the next 10 years without the need to reapply for funds. While you only make repayments on the funds you use, there is an application fee which you should consider.

A Basic Package from $40,000 and a Professional Package for loans over $100,000 are also available from AMP with a variable interest rate. AMP’s variable home loans have the same fees and most of the same features as the fixed rate alternative, although they are a little more flexible in terms of the amount of extra repayments and free redraws you can make, and both also come with an offset account.
The main difference is that your variable interest rate might change over the duration of your loan term, as it fluctuates with the market. However if you want the certainty of fixed rates over a number of years, you can enjoy the best of both worlds by splitting your loan between the two rate options.

AMP’s line of credit home loans allow you to consolidate your debts by offering a buffer of extra funds that you can access again and again for future investments such as the home reno. You are only charged interest on the funds that you use and should you need to divert cash to other commitments, you can take advantage of the interest-only period (up to 10 years). While there is a monthly account management fee, you’ll be able to access a range of handy features including extra repayment options, a redraw facility and an ATM card (on request) which you can use to freely withdraw via the rediATM network Australia wide.

Some of the home loans offered by AMP including the Basic Package and the Essential Home Loan don’t have yearly account management fees, which can save you big over the life of your home loan. But these loans may have a higher interest rate or less flexibility than the ones with ongoing fees, so be sure you weigh up the pros and cons first.
AMP’s variable rate loans allow you to make extra repayments whenever you like and without penalty, so be sure to take advantage of this feature to pay your loan off faster and reduce your interest costs. You can also make additional repayments with AMP's fixed rate loans, but there will be a cap on the amount you can pay extra for free.
With AMP’s variable loans, you can tap into extra repayments via a fee-free redraw facility, should you need a cash fix at a later date. Just be mindful that the Essential Home Loan offer comes with a minimum redraw amount each time.
Another handy feature that could possibly save you thousands in interest is a linked offset deposit account that is optional with many of AMP’s variable rate home loans. When you deposit your savings into this account, these funds are offset against the balance of your loan and therefore reduce the interest you’ll have to pay. Say you have a $200,000 loan and $50,000 in your mortgage offset account -you’ll only be charged interest against $150,000.

The home loan account was been settled incorrectly. Therefore, I am not able to make any transfer through the online banking. Actually this is fine, everyone make errors. But what really piss me off is the procedure and actions to resolve the issue. It have been more than 2 weeks time, the issue still not been resolved. It was the worst banking experience I had so far. - difficult to find a person (above 45mins waiting time for the service call) - poor record. Need to explain the issue again and again every time i call them - it was different stories/ explanation/ excuses from their customer service staff every time - lack of capability to resolve a simple account setup issue for the customer I have home loan with other lender as well. It is certain that some other leader in the market can offer similar interest rate but much better customer service. So I don't recommend to use the AMP home loan product.

Around two weeks ago, I sent them a written request to switch my product from professional to Essential(without offset facility), they did not tell me I would lose my offset benefits. On 2nd September, I made a call to them, I was told that I would lose my offset benefits if i do switch product, then i said please switch product after next repayment date(15th Sep), the staff left a note stating to switch product after next repayment date in order to not lose offset benefit. But Unfortunately, they did switch my product to Essentials without seeing that note on 6th Sep, which made me lose my offset benefit from 15th Aug to 6th Sep. what a mistake they did. i wrote my compliant, it would take 35 working days to investigate, poor service , poor management. i am frustrated with it. my account number is 275225198

LessI'm in the process of taking legal action as I was pre-approved for a home loan, and was advised to commence house hunting and submit offers. Only after I paid a deposit for a property they declined releasing the funds and refused to issue a formal approval. Their procedures are disgusting and I'm currently building a case against them within my firm.

Poor response to correspondence, customer service will just hang up the phone rather then help. Please don't think about a home loan with them, you'll regret it. Glad I've sold my property and I don't have to deal with AMP anymore. No wonder their share price is in the toilet.

AMP's home loan process starts with filling out a pre-qualification form to estimate your borrowing power and how much you'll need to repay. You can then expect to hear back from a home loan specialist within two business days to discuss your options. When it actually comes to applying for an AMP home loan, you'll need a few details handy:
