Considering a personal loan?

What is a personal loan?

It allows you to borrow a fixed amount over a fixed term, usually at a fixed rate of interest.

 

Borrow between €2,500 and €75,000
Flexible repayment terms of 1 - 10 years (depending on your loan purpose)

 

Borrow for almost any purpose
Buying a new car, making some home improvements or funding your child's university education? We could help.

 

Monthly repayments with no upfront fees or charges
Your rate is fixed for the term of the loan meaning no unexpected changes to your repayment amount. We won't charge you to set up your loan.
