Borrow well with TSB’s Fix and Flex loan:  fast, flexible and personalised quotes without affecting credit rating

TSB has introduced a personal loan rate of 3.2% APR for amounts between £7,500 and £25,000.  The rate is applicable for all loan terms between one and five years. 

TSB is committed to helping people to ‘borrow well’, which means helping them to borrow money in a way that makes the best financial sense for them.  It is essential that people not only borrow an amount they can afford to repay and at a competitive interest rate but understand the product’s features such as whether they can take a payment holiday or if there are fees should they pay off the loan in full early.

Nick Smith, Head of Loans at TSB, says: “Our personal loans help customers to borrow well, whether they’re consolidating other loans, planning home improvements or looking to finance a car

“Unlike some providers, we don’t punish people for shopping around for a loan, as we offer personalised quotes on a TSB loan without affecting your credit ratings.  We also make sure you get the loan quickly and we offer the flexibility of overpayments.” 

Flexible borrowing

Unlike with some personal loans providers, customers will receive a personalised quote with the APR we’ll charge instantly without affecting their credit rating.

TSB current account customers could get the money in their account the same day.  For those who don’t bank with TSB, they could still have the money in their account the next day once they’re approved.  TSB loans all offer the flexibility for customers to make overpayments, so they can reduce the term and amount of interest paid should they so wish. 

Customers can apply online at tsb.co.uk, by phone on 0345 835 3861 or in a TSB branch.
