What personal loans does Teachers Mutual Bank offer? 

Personal Loan 

Teachers Mutual bank has an unsecured personal loan product that has the option of a fixed or variable rate. Customers can choose between a $2,000 and $80,000 loan and pay it back for up to 6 years. 

When it comes to repayments, borrowers can choose a weekly, fortnightly or monthly repayment schedule. On top of that, extra repayments and redraws are allowed. While the variable rate option doesn’t have an early repayment penalty, the fixed rate loan does offer a lower interest rate. 

While there is no ongoing service cost associated with either loan option, there is an upfront application fee to budget for.

Great customer service.

Interest rates on personal loans are far too high. When interest rates are at all time lows, why are we still paying over 13% for personal loans?
