ING personal loans review
As a big bank, ING provides personal loans suitable for those with good credit history. It does not provide personal loans for self-employed people.
Personal loan customers can borrow up to $60,000, with a maximum term of seven years.
ING may charge various fees, including an establishment fee, and late fees. If you’re applying for an ING personal loan, it’s best to read the contract carefully. However, ING customers can pay off their loan early without penalty.
ING’s interest rate for personal loans are very low for a major bank lender. But borrowers with poor credit ratings will likely not be approved if they apply for an ING personal loan.
If you’re looking for the best personal loan rates for you, it’s worthwhile to compare personal loan rates from several different lenders and consider your personal financial situation.
