Save $1000s, excellent service
Excellent customer service, no fees and low interest rates.
No fees and the competitive rates can save you $1000s per year, to use on your next holiday or take away food / coffee budget.
Tic Toc staff are friendly, patient and connected with me through the process. They value customers. They are available on phone, chat and email.
Big bank packages cost $400 per year, that’s $12,000 over 30 years - to give you a rate discount. How about getting a low rate that doesn’t need a discount and not paying $400 per year - that’s tic toc
You get an Adelaide bank home loan. Tic toc is not a small bank or lender!

Good interest rates but they are not upfront with their terms and conditions
I would have loved to have gone with TICTOC however I have 2 workplaces, the majority of my work is as an employee under PAYG but part of my work is as a partner in a business and they classify this as "self employed" even though I get the majority of my pay as "PAYG". Regulations which are out of their control state that you must be self employed for at least 2 years and provide 2 years worth of financials. Unfortunately this information was not given upon application and incurred a credit check on my credit rating. I would suggest an improvem...Read more
ent for TICTOC that this information regarding those who are an employee and an employer that they make it clearer re the 2 years financials requirement. TICTOC offer a variable 2.55% rate, I ended up refinancing with my bank (ANZ) on a 1 year fixed rate at 2.39% which also has no ongoing fees and an offset account, was given a special offer by the bank. Glad I went with ANZ at this stage as more secure than smaller lenders who are only partly funded by banks as Bendigo bank is not their only funder

Good home loan, but not for everyone
I was looking to refinance my home loan for a better fixed rate as my bank wouldn't negotiate a better deal for me. Tictoc online application was easy to fill in and easy to navigate around. The information that they needed was easy to obtain and the outcome of my loan approval was given to me within a very short period of time. Unfortunately I was not able to refinance with them due to Tictoc not accepting my family tax benefit as 100% to be included in my income due to the age of my children which was unfortunate because they offer such a gre...Read more
at rate and no ongoing fees ect ect. It wasn't their fault, just company policy and in no way a bad reflection upon the company. Many banks and loans don't accept the full family assistance amounts to be included in your loan applications these days. But just so you know that if you are planning to apply with them and use your family tax benefit as a part of your income, then you may come across the same problem.1 comment

Great customer service
We elected to use the algorithm to begin with, but ended up having to through the manual process anyway. Luckily, Ryan D was very responsive and easy to work with during the process. I have dealt with a few different banks before and Tic:Toc has been by far the most pleasant experience. If this positive experience is shared by existing as well as new customers, along with the very sharp rate, I can see myself being Tic:Toc customer for a long time!

Waste of my time to apply for investment loan.
Applied online, submitted documents and required human intervention. Due to a back log, it took a few more business days to clear. Got approved, organised Zip ID only to find out loan is now knock back to due "substantial benefit" which I never heard off. Wish they do preliminary checks first, now I copped a credit check on my record, wasted time while I could have gone to a mortgage broker.

ffort to lend responsibly, we’re required to lend only to those who will receive a substantial benefit from the home loan. This means we can only lend to you if you’re listed on the property title. These rules are in place to ensure loans are only being paid by people who will receive a benefit from them, i.e. if you’re paying off the home loan, you will actually own part of the home.Similar opinion?

Great product! Easy Home Loan with Very Low Rates!
I have just obtained a home loan with Tic Toc and was previously with loans com for 3 years. The rates at loans com to new customers are low but they don't pass full rate cuts to the existing customers and over time the interest rate becomes uncompetitive.

Great credit assessor experience!
Ryan has provided me an excellent service! He was very thorough and straight forward with the sets of questions he asked so it wasn’t hard to provide him the information he needed in order to assess my financial capacity. The only downside that I’ve probably encountered is the manual handling of loan documents it still needs to be posted to their Legal entity. I hope this will be digitalised soon especially now that we are facing an unprecedented situation now where less contact is necessary.

No common sense. Backwards thinking
My husband and I applied for a loan with this bunch of incompetence and they told us we can’t “afford” the loan even though we have been currently been paying more for the last 3-4 years on our mortgage at a higher rate/repayment and have also managed to save over $150k on top of all our bills. To get approved we also finalised our A rated car loan and credit card which we didn’t owe mulch on and we still “failed” servicing. I think the key ingredient they lack is a bit of common sense.

Hi Saskia,
Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback. We’re sorry to hear about your experience.... Read more
As part of serviceability, we look at three main figures: 1. Your income 2. Your expenses 3. Your commitments (i.e. your ongoing debts, such as a car loan or other home loan) We use these three figures to calculate your Net Serviceability Ratio (NSR). To pass servicing, your ratio must be 1.00 or higher. Based on the information you have provided us, you do not meet our serviceability requirements. While it may be possible to save a deposit under your financial circumstances, we need to assess applications based on how comfortably you afford the loan now and into the future. We do this as part of our responsible lending obligations. We’re sorry we are not able to assist you at this time. To learn more about serviceability, see here: https://tictoc.com.au/home-loan-guide/serviceability-explained If you would like a more in-depth explanation, our team is available 7 days on 1300 842 405 and would be happy to go through your application in more detail. Thanks ~ BaileyIt seems one thing you do not use when assessing applications in common sense.

Very Slow. Very Incompetent. False Advertising
If you are hoping to Use Tic: Toc and you have just signed a purchase contract, GO ELSEWHERE.
I had this misfortune of dealing with Stephen Cooper, who lacks the ability to perform basics math. For a company that claims to use the latest technology, the process was so slow and arduous. In the process I closed my A rated NAB credit card account which I owed $0 on, I finalized my car loan which was also an A rated account as I didn't owe much money on, I provided statements showing perfect current mortgage repayments at a higher amount than what...Read more
the new loan was going to be and Stephen told me that my "living expenses" are $7000 p/month before taking in to account any other fixed liabilities, which is physically impossible. I also have over $150k in savings (not sure how I can save money if my "living expenses" are more than what I earn. I work in finance myself and Stephen seems to lack competence to add 2 and 2 together and realise that he was doubling down on my minimum credit card payments and "living expenses". I asked if I could please speak to a manager and he told me no, and that there was no one there higher than him I could speak to. Don't waste your time with these idiots. Its actually embarrassing that I have put myself in such a good financial position and then be told no 4 weeks later.2 comments

Tictoc refinance, very picky
Looked at tictoc for refinancing. Went through online questions without a hassle.
Received a declined response from a human checker. Basically they were questioning where my savings went. Also said we had too many overdrawn fees on cc and a everyday account (even though they were small amounts and paid a day after going over). Overall it seems they are very picky.
I guess ill stay with a big bank who can handle our finances.

Not treating the existing customers fairly
They will lock you in and then dont reduce interest rate. Mine is now 3.41% while the others lenders keep on dropping their rate. For new customers they are offering 3.15% (before today RBA cuts) for the same type of loan and when I talked to them they refuse to match my rate with new customers i.e. existing customers are treated unfairly. Now considering switching to Athena even if it cost me a bit upfront.

as we continue to grow. The Tic:Toc interest rates we display on our website are absolutely true and correct, and are only subject to your approval for the corresponding home loan with us. Depending on the info you enter in your application, we may recommend a home loan based on your requirements that’s different to the one you were expecting. For example, if you want certainty of repayments, we’ll recommend a fixed home loan (which has a different interest rate to our variable home loan).Similar opinion?

Questions & Answers
Nick Sasked
We have transferred to a Tic Toc mortgage and as part of the new service we have Tic Toc debit eftpos cards with the only disadvantage being that it doesn’t have the pay wave facility.
Given the current Covid 19 crisis where the preferred point of sale transaction is by pay wave to limit personal contact and possible transmission, do Tic Toc intend to activate the pay wave function on their debit eftpos cards?
1 answer
Bailey U.Tic:Toc
Hi Nick, thanks for your question. Unfortunately, our debit EFTPOS cards do not currently have PayWave functionality, so this isn't something we can activate. We're listening to the feedback of customers like you - particularly at this time - and are hoping to offer a new and improved card in the future. We do acknowledge your point around the added risk of not having PayWave, and are doing what we can. We apologise we haven't been able to move faster on this front.
Please let us know if we can answer any other questions! ~ Bailey
Andrewasked
Hi, when applying online to refinance it asks for a deposit amount. Is there a way that my current mortgage can just be transferred over to the new loan with tic toc without paying a deposit as this was done initially on my current loan.
3 answers
Bailey U.Tic:Toc
Hi Andrew, thanks for your question. We can lend up to 80% LVR without LMI (90% LVR with LMI), and you will instead need 20% equity in your current property, not a 20% deposit.
At the beginning of the application you'll be asked if you're purchasing or refinancing - if you're refinancing, you shouldn't be asked for a deposit amount. Could you please double check you have selected the refinance option?
Please let us know should you have any other questions! Thanks ~ Bailey
Hi Bailey. Yes i click refinancing and it comes up with loan amount $290 000 but above this it says deposit required $142 000. The home is valued at $412 500 with $290 000 remaining on the mortgage
Bailey U.Tic:Toc
Thanks for checking and clarifying Andrew. This is a known issue with our application, where it sometimes displays an incorrect required deposit amount. This won't affect your refinance, so you can proceed with your application. If you're unsure or if you need to follow up on anything, we'd love to help - please give our team a call on 1300 842 405, or we're available over webchat: https://tictoc.com.au/lets-talk
