Old Mutual
Simple zero interest loans for existing plan holders. No interest, flexible repayment, and clear approval process guarantee a stress-free loan experience.
The Old Mutual Zero Interest Loan RSA provides an exceptional loan offering to South Africans holding existing qualifying plans. As an independent reviewer, I find this loan’s zero interest structure and clear repayment flexibility appealing. The main criterion is continued adherence to your current premium schedule or making ongoing ad hoc investments.
Eligible clients can apply for a loan where the amount is set according to the regulations of the Long-Term Insurance Act, ensuring fair lending practices. All repayments are made in rands and strict joint liability applies if there are multiple borrowers. Repayment can take place at any time, which is a practical touch for flexible financial planning.
Terms and conditions are straightforward: no interest is charged on the principal, but administrative and amendment fees may apply. Borrowers must also refrain from ceding their policy before the loan is fully settled.
How to Apply: Step by Step
- Confirm your eligibility—ensure you have an active, qualifying Old Mutual plan or savings policy.
- Complete the zero interest loan application form with accurate details.
- Submit the required documents and select your preferred contact address.
- Wait for Old Mutual’s approval and clarification of the maximum available loan amount.
- Follow repayment instructions and maintain your existing investment or premium schedule.
Key Advantages
Firstly, the most attractive feature is a 0% interest rate, which reduces borrowing costs dramatically when compared to standard personal loans. This makes the offer stand out.
Secondly, there is no penalty for early settlement or for making additional repayments. You can manage your loan repayment schedule to suit your financial position, at your own pace.
Important Disadvantages
On the downside, only existing Old Mutual plan holders can access this offer. If you don’t already have a qualifying policy, you cannot apply for this loan.
Additionally, certain admin or amendment fees may be levied, so while interest is not charged, ancillary costs are possible and should be considered before proceeding.
Final Verdict
For existing Old Mutual clients, the Zero Interest Loan RSA presents a rare opportunity to borrow without interest and with flexible, penalty-free repayment. Its clear requirements and transparent terms make it particularly suited to those seeking affordable loan options tied to savings or investment plans.
