NAB personal loans review

A NAB personal loan can be used for a wide range of purposes like weddings, cars, holidays and renovations. Borrowers can borrow from $5,000 to $55,000, with loan terms from one to seven years and choose from either a fixed or variable interest rate.

While NAB personal loans have a range of features, it’s worth noting that NAB’s fixed and variable personal loan interest rates are considered to be moderate. NAB also charges an upfront fee and an ongoing monthly fee.

With NAB personal loans, you have the option to make extra repayments onto NAB’s fixed or variable personal loans, which could potentially reduce the amount of interest you pay. NAB personal loans also have no exit fees for paying off the loan early. However, only the variable-rate personal loan includes access to a redraw facility, which allows you to withdraw the extra repayments you have made into your loan.

Before choosing a personal loan, it always pays to do your research and compare your options.
