  • Does Virgin Australia going into administration affect this?

    • @ShinK0 - I have shared some information below directly from Virgin Money.

      AN UPDATE ON VIRGIN AUSTRALIA & THE VELOCITY FREQUENT FLYER PROGRAM

      No doubt you’ve heard that Virgin Australia has entered voluntary administration. We appreciate you might be concerned about what this means for Virgin Money – but you don’t need to be. It’s business as usual for us. Whilst we’re proudly part of the Virgin brand and family, we’re 100% owned by Bank of Queensland. Our business is strong and we’re well-positioned to continue supporting you and our customers.

      • Likelihood of being re-branded soon? (not that this would affect this deal)

        • No idea but this ownership structure has been in place for sometime so I assume unlikely anytime soon.

    • Virgin Money (Australia) Pty Limited ABN 75 103 478 897 promotes and distributes the companion account and the home loans as the authorised representative and credit representative of the issuer and credit provider, Bank of Queensland Limited ABN 32 009 656 740, Australian Credit Licence/AFSL 244 616 (the 'Lender').

    So what's the rate?

    • -2

      @cjb rates vary depending on your loan amount and borrowing ratio. All current interest rates are on my website based on your bespoke requirement, alternatively message me what you are looking at and happy to provide the rate which would apply to you.

      • Owner Occupied Products Rate Comparision
        Reward Me Variable 4.32% 4.47%
        Reward Me Fixed 2.79% 3.47%

        • +4

          That seems super high for a variable?

  • +2

    I would advise avoiding this mob.

    In the last 4-5 interest rates changes, they were the ones who passed the least reduction.

    As an example, there were 2 rate cuts declared in March 2020 (one early March and one mid March), the first one was passed a month later in full (4 April) and the second one was NOT passed at all. The previous cut was passed 22 basis points and the one before this, was 15 basis points.

    The other reason is this lender has a slow response rate. When I asked for renegotiation, the response days were up to 2 weeks. To be fair, they have improved since to 3-4 days which is quite frankly, still slow.

    The account is not PAYID enabled but strangely enough if someone sends you money in the morning, it will be in your bank account by 5pm most of the time.

    It also has one of most onerous daily limit even for BPAY. Not a big problem but when I was paying for a car, I had to do it in installments. Not an easy interface to increase temporary transfer limit.

    According to my previous broker, it is also easy to reject application but I am finding my renegotiation application not that bad other than slow response days.

    • the first one was passed a month later in full (4 April) and the second one was NOT passed at all
      Our favourite UBank did the same.

    • I am with them and I agree that they are super slow. Expect several weeks for your initial approval (that was pre-covid19). Their risk tolerance is also extremely low so be prepared for a very intensive check and control over your bank accounts and expenses. Their call centre and customer support, however has been good whenever I've tried to contact them.

  • I had a very negative experience from this home loan provider. After a long series of unpleasant and rude responses from their manager called Stephen Porter, I was finally able to move my loan to a proper financial institution.

    • Referring to this broker or Virgin Money?

  • Is that a broker deal on top of the $2500 cashback virgin money is offering directly? If yes, count me in and would love to know more details please

  • It’s a Virgin Money deal not a broker deal
