Received an email from ING offering $200 when taking out an ING personal loan, so I assume this is targeted.
Loan must be approved and accepted before 31 August 2021 and loan fee of $100 waived if you have an existing ING Orange Everyday Account. Fixed interest rate from 7.99% p.a. to 10.99% p.a. (comparison rate 8.13% p.a. to 11.14% p.a.)
Not available to those with an existing ING personal loan.
Minimum loan amount is $5k so a 4% return on effort put in for taking out a loan out.
Might be handy for anyone who's got $5k of savings. Reading through the T&Cs there is no early repayment fee, so possible just to close the loan out as soon as you get the $200.
Not sure of any credit impacts.
