Loan relief for Bank customers

Australian banks have hardship teams ready to help. If you’re dealing with the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and require assistance please see the list below. There are links to the specific web pages for each financial institution that will guide you and provide the process for applying for assistance during this extremely vulnerable time for many of you. The type of assistance will depend on individual circumstances.

Assistance can  include:

  • A deferral of scheduled loan repayments

  • Waiving fees and charges

  • Interest free periods or no interest rate increases

  • Debt consolidation to help make repayments more manageable.

As this is an ongoing and fluid crisis, polices may change quickly. Therefore it is important that you continue to monitor Federal and State government announcements especially in relation to packages and other relief that may be appropriate for you

This is not an exhaustive list and if your financial institution is not listed please seek alternate methods.

If you require additional information or support please do not hesitate to contact Eli at Lenders Domain on 0415358511 or email your concens to [email protected]

At this crucial time we all need to support eachother . Please stay safe and follow the health guidelines.
