Car Loan Fees and Charges

At GE Money we're committed to educating our customers about what our fees and charges are on our car loans and how to avoid paying more than you need to.

 

The three important fees you should be aware of include; the once-off establishment fee ($295), loan service fee ($10 per month) and if you're lucky enough to pay off your loan early – an early termination fee (see the table below for details).

 

Almost all customers choose direct debit because it helps you avoid fees from missed or late payments. If you choose to pay through Australia Post or BPAY® you will incur a payment handling fee.

 

How can I avoid paying late fees?
  • Paying by direct debit saves you time and the hassle of manual repayments, it also helps you to avoid fees from missed or late payments.
  • Make sure you have sufficient funds in your account so all direct debits and other scheduled payments can be made.
  • If your circumstances change which may affect your repayments, call us on 1300 973 422 to discuss your options.
  • You can also make additional repayments so you pay off your loan sooner and save on interest.
