Mozo snapshot

With the First Option Bank personal loan, you’ll be paying an interest rate of 13.99% p.a. (14.25% p.a. comparison rate), but you can make free and unlimited extra repayments so you can pay the loan off early and save on interest. You’ll pay no monthly or annual fees for a loan between $1,000 and $15,000, although there is a $175 application fee to look out for. 

Also, If you’ve already got a home loan with First Option Bank, you can get a reduced interest option of the loan at 7.99% (8.24% p.a. comparison rate).

Key features

You can take out a personal loan with First Option Bank from as little as $1,000 up to $15,000. You’ll also get a choice of loan terms from 1-7 years.

So what if you want to pay it off early? With unlimited and free extra repayments and no early payout penalties, you’ll find a lot of flexibility to contribute to your personal loan whenever you’ve got extra cash. Just keep in mind that if you want to redraw, you’ll have to pay a $10 fee.

However, when it comes to fees, you won’t have to worry about monthly or annual fees. In fact, the only fee you’ll pay is a $175 application fee.

WARNING: The Comparison Rate combines the lender's interest rate, fees and charges into a single rate to show the true cost of a personal loan. The comparison rates displayed are calculated based on a loan of $30,000 for a term of 5 years or a loan of $10,000 for a term of 3 years as indicated, based on monthly principal and interest repayments, on a secured basis for secured loans and an unsecured basis for unsecured loans. This comparison rate applies only to the example or examples given. Different amounts and terms will result in different comparison rates. Costs such as redraw fees or early repayment fees, and cost savings such as fee waivers, are not included in the comparison rate but may influence the cost of the loan.
