Warning about borrowing

Do you really need a loan today?

It can be expensive to borrow small amounts of money and borrowing may not solve your money problems. Check your options before you borrow:
The Government’s MoneySmart website shows you how small amount loans work and suggests other options that may help you.
* This statement is an Australian Government requirement under the National Consumer Credit Protection Act 2009.

About the National Consumer Credit Protection Act

The National Consumer Credit Protection Act regulates credit provided in Australia to individuals for personal, domestic or household purposes and for investment in residential property. If a loan is used mainly for any of these purposes ten the law requires us to make assumptions about some of the disclosures (eg. such as the total amount of fees and charges and the total amount of repayments) based on future events that may not turn out to be correct (eg. If you have a variable rate loan, your interest rate may change). The Act does not apply to companies or to borrowers of credit provided wholly or predominantly for investment (other than in residential property) or for business purposes (or for both purposes).

Flash Money will not enter into an unsuitable contract with you

We will not enter into a contract, or increase the credit limit of your current contract if it would be unsuitable for you. A contract will be unsuitable for you if you will be unable to comply with your financial obligations under the contract without suffering substantial hardship, or if the contract does not meet your stated requirements and objectives.
In order to ensure that we do not enter into a contract that is unsuitable with you, we are required to make reasonable inquiries relating to your financial situation, requirements and objectives, and to take reasonable steps to verify your financial situation.

We will provide a copy of our assessment if you ask

We are required to make an assessment that the credit contract or increase in credit limit is not unsuitable before we enter into a credit contract with you or agree to increase your current credit limit.
If you ask us we will give you a copy of the assessment before entering into the credit contract or increasing your credit limit.
You may also request a copy of the assessment within seven years of the date the contract is made or your credit limit is increased. If your request is made within two years, we will provide you with the assessment within 21 business days. We will not charge you a fee for providing the assessment.

What if you have a complaint?

In the event of a dispute, you should first discuss the matter with us to see whether we can satisfactorily resolve your concerns. You may tell us of your concerns in one of the ways shown below.
