Personal Loan Protection

Personal Loan protection is no longer sold. The information on this product is for existing Personal Loan protection policy holders. 
 

Having Personal Loan Protection to help cover your repayments means you’ll have one less thing to worry about:

• Get your monthly repayments paid if you unexpectedly lose your job, for up to 180 days or until you return to work, whichever happens first
• Get your monthly repayments paid while you’re sick or injured and can’t work
• Have any balance owing paid off up to $100,000 if you pass away
• You can claim even if entitled to benefits from another source, such as workers compensation, sick leave or Centrelink.

Of course, like all insurance, some exclusions, limits and conditions apply. For example, if you voluntarily resign or accept a voluntary redundancy you aren’t covered for job loss. Also, if you were not working at least 15 hours or more per week when you became unfit for work, you  will  not be covered.

Personal Loan Protection will help pay your personal loan repayments if you:

• Lose your job
• Become unfit for work due to sickness, injury, or disease
• Die, it will pay the balance owing on your personal loan up to $100,000. 

Other benefits

• You don’t pay more because of your age, job, or health record
  
• You can claim even if you are entitled to benefits from another source, such as workers compensation, sick leave or Centrelink.
