How to top up your loan?

Option 1: Replace your existing loan(s)

  • Get one bigger loan that pays off your existing Ulster Bank loan - and gives you the extra money you need. 
  • You'll have just one fixed-rate loan payment, so it's easy to manage.
  • You'll have a new interest rate, which might be more than the interest on your existing loan.
  • You'll need to pay an early repayment fee. This will be included in the amount needed to pay off your old loan.

Option 2: Apply for a separate loan

  • You'll keep your existing Ulster Bank loan(s) – which will stay the same, with the same interest rate.
  • Then apply for a second Ulster Bank loan for any additional borrowing you want.
  • Each loan will have its own interest rate and a different number of years to pay it back over.
