Do you need to take out some extra borrowing, and already hold a loan with us? You could apply online to either top up your existing loan, or apply for an additional loan.
Topping up your loan
Existing customers can apply for further lending, and if approved, we'll automatically consolidate your existing loan with the new loan to provide one monthly repayment. The APR of this new loan could be higher than the APR of your existing Personal Loan.
The top up option may increase the total amount payable if your existing debt is repaid over a new extended term. The rate we offer could be higher than the representative APR advertised, and more than your existing loan APR. An approved rate will be subject to a credit check, and the loan amount you request.
Additional loan
Keep your monthly repayments separate by applying for an additional loan to obtain the lending you require. The amount you choose to borrow is dependent on your credit status.
Calculate your additional loan repayments
Use the sliders to adjust how much you'd like to borrow and over how many months.
We may be able to offer you a better rate if you change the amount you want to borrow or the length of time you borrow for. A small change can make a big difference to how much interest you'll pay and the overall cost of the loan. We'll offer you a rate based on our assessment of your personal financial circumstances.

This is for your additional loan only. If you're choosing to top up your existing loan, it won't take into account your existing borrowing. You can see this information when you apply through online banking.
