Joined 4 years ago. Rates kept on creeping up against benchmark. Recently tried to call to discuss rate change. After 12 days and 4 calls and two firm complaints to staff still zero response. I wanted to give them a chance to reduce the rates - which are now higher than the rates advertised by the big 4 - so that neither of us have to waste time changing. As one can expect, once you are a customer, you are treated poorly, and the rates will keep increasing to above the big 4.

This has been the best experience I have ever had in obtaining a loan / any form of finance. I called countless times, asked thousands of questions and it was never too much hassle for Marisa. This is the most transparent company I’ve deal the with; always upfront about their processes, policies and willing to help where needed. Marisa was fantastic in addressing my concerns, walking me through the process and keeping me updated. I have become loans.com.au #1 advocate and have already recommended them to my friends and family. I will not hesitate to use them again. Oh, and they have good rates to!

loans.com.au are notorious for gauging their existing customers. They suck in customers with a competitive ‘bait price‘ and then after 6 months will try every trick in the book to screw their exisiting customers for more money. In recent years this has been by achieved by either not passing on rate cuts or gauging their customers with rates hikes due to “increases in wholesale lending”. It’s funny that they don’t decrease home loan rates when wholesale lending costs come down like they did in 2022.
All customers with loans.com.au end up paying much much higher rates than the industry average. This is a terrible company with a disgraceful business model and I urge you to avoid this company at all costs.

Great company for getting a loan. Pre-approval given within 24 hrs all online with a short phone call.
A few back and forward with submitting documents which was a bit annoying and no notification when they required further documents.

The day time staff are fabulous .... after hours staff are rude and just horrible to deal with! No point of having an after hours service really!

First it attracts you with low interest rate and after becoming customer,loan.com.au treat us like we are nothing. I call them everytime when reserve bank cut interest rate but Everytime I here I am getting best interest rate blah..blah..blah . I am normal person and do not understand other than interest rate. My intreset rate is 3.22 variable now and my friend who went with other bank same time when both bank have same interest rate, her interest rate is 2.69 variable only. What a shame..

I have on many occasions asked that my rate be reviewed to reflect the rate of new customers. Been told no each time as the source of their loans is different for new customers and if unhappy I should just go elsewhere

The introductory rate was good with offset account. However, my rate bumped up twice within the first 6 months after I became their customer. Called a couple of times for a rate review but they would not lower their rate at all. Not to mention most of lenders have passed on the RBA cut recently but Loans.com.au always find excuses not to fully pass it or don't pass it at all.
If you are casual or self-employed, be prepared to give them 3 years of income history, at least that's what happened to me. Also be aware it's not free when you decide to leave them.

Don't be lured to their loan rate as when i signed up after 6 months whether the interest rates go up or not they raised it. When the reserve bank dropped it they don't drop it and when you ask for hardship due to coronavirus impact and ask if it will affect your credit profile i get advised yes really even through these difficult times where the whole world is suffering. Thanks for not helping through this time of stress and anxiety

Lure you in with low initial rates, then jack your rate up with a series of small incremental rate increases (out of alignment with the RBA decisions) due to 'overseas funding costs blah blah blah'.
RBA cuts are not passed on, only to new customers.
It's a big, nasty scam and it shouldn't be legal. Avoid.

Since joining Loans.com.au the interest rate for new customers has dropped much lower than existing customers. They are not interested in dropping for existing customers either. Looking to refinance elsewhere.

Trust me, I have been a customer for a while now and know the real experience! Don't be fooled by their low advertised rates, they are for SHOW ONLY! After you become a customer you'll see how your rates slowly bump up compared to their advertised rates. For example, my investment loan rate is 3.18% compared to their advertised rate of 2.94%. Also you'll have to wait like for 3-4 weeks to see the RBA cuts apply to your loan accounts. On the other hand, it takes just hours for them to increase the rates when needed! That tells a lot about the ethics of the company!!

Loan was settled today. I called on Monday and it was done and settled by Thursday enabling us to buy the car we wanted. Thanks for getting it through for us.

Avoid these guys, plenty of other lenders
Good 5 years ago, but do not communicate rate changes clearly, would not rectify their mistakes.Worst they have higher rates for existing customers now.

Best rate when we applied, but they don't pass on rate cuts to existing loans, only to new customers, now I'm refinancing away from loans.com.au as they are ~0.5% above the market price. They happily watch customers leave, take your loan to Athena the first time...

Was easy to change over from my old bank only a month or 2 wait which is normal. Good interest rate. Will see if they pass on the full rate cut as they failed to the last cut.
