LHV Refinancing Loan
Terms and conditions
You can apply for a loan, if
- your monthly income is at least EUR 300
- you are aged 18 to 75
- you are an Estonian citizen or live in Estonia on the basis of a residence permit
You do not have to be a client of LHV to apply for a loan and enter into a loan agreement. You can also make loan payments from your home bank account.
If you have a temporary residence permit, you can enter into a loan agreement with a repayment period that lasts up to the maximum duration of your residence permit.
If you need to submit an account statement, we will let you know. We will guide you through the application process on how to do it. In this case, you must submit the statements of all other banks besides LHV where you are settling. You can submit the statement automatically when preparing the application or send it by e-mail at finance@lhv.ee.
The interest rate is fixed for the entire loan repayment period and does not depend on a change in the Euribor. This way you can be sure that the amount of your monthly loan payment will not change.
Refinancing
With a refinancing loan, you can combine all your small loans and hire-purchases into one loan. This way, you will have a better overview of your loan obligations and you can repay them conveniently with one monthly payment.
With refinancing, you can combine the loans of several creditors into one loan, the terms and conditions of which are more suitable for you. Your monthly obligations will decrease. You will also only make payments once a month and with a single invoice, which will give you a clearer overview of your obligations.
We refinance consumer loans and hire-purchases of various creditors.
In order to make a loan decision, we need a 6-month statement of your account, where your income is received and from which you will pay your obligations. We also need information about your obligations to be refinanced (e.g., consumer loans and hire-purchases), i.e., the name of the creditor and the balance of the loan amount. Our loan specialist will ask you for all the necessary information after you have submitted your application.
How much and to what extent we refinance your loan obligations will become clear after reviewing your application. Enter the amount of loan obligations you would like to refinance in the application.
When issuing a refinancing loan, we will transfer the loan amount to one or more creditors based on your consent, which you give by signing the agreement, in order to partially or fully terminate your loan obligations there.
We do not refinance a loan, the repayments of which are owed. Please contact the financial institution that issued the loan in order to reach an agreement on payment of the debt.
Conclusion of contract
You can sign the agreement in our self-service platform once you have provided us with all the necessary information to close the loans being refinanced and we have prepared an offer for you. Our offer is valid until the settlement statement due date of the refinanced loan with the shortest term.
We will inform you of the need for identification when concluding the contract. You can identify yourself at our client office or at the Euronics store.
Making payments
Information about the size and payment date of the first payment will be sent to you by e-mail after signing the agreement. This information is also available in the payment schedule of your loan agreement. If you are unable to find the necessary information, please call 699 9119 or write to finance@lhv.ee.
Interest on the first payment is calculated on the basis of the number of days between the date of conclusion of the agreement and the first payment date. If the time between the conclusion of the agreement and the first payment date is longer than 30 days, the calculation period of interest on the first payment will be longer than usual and therefore the payment will be higher. It depends on the time of entering into the agreement and the payment date chosen by you. For subsequent payments, interest is calculated for 30 days.
We will send you the invoice by e-mail or regular mail every month up to five days before the payment date. If you have also requested an e-invoice, we will send it to the Internet bank of your choice.
Please make the payment to the AS LHV Finance account EE707700771001062897. Indicate the number of your loan contract as the reference number.
