Our Story

We have been with many lenders over the years, all with the same promise of good service and low rates. Not long later those rates start creeping up and up to the point you’re paying the same as the big 4. Existing customers keep getting treated unfairly while the new customers get the shiny new low rate. NOT WITH ATHENA. We are paying the exact same rates as new customers and even recently had rates dropped to 1.99% even without and RBA rate decrease, AND DROPPED AGAIN TO 1.89%. Increasing inline with the latest RBA cash rate.

**July 2022 Update: Athena have increased the variable rate by 65 basis points following the RBAs 50 basis points increase.**

**August 2022 Update: Athena have increase the variable rate by 50 basis points following the RBAs 50 basis points increase.**

**September 2022 Update: Athena have increased the variable rate by 50 basis points following the RBAs 50 basis points increase.**

**April 2022 Update: Athena have not increased the variable rate above the RBA cash rate increase (except July 2022). Good to see no rate creep, and us existing customers still getting the great rate new customers receive! **

Not only did we use someone’s refer a mate code when we moved across, we are saving $200 / month in repayments, quickly regaining any refinancing fees when moving across.

The application process

Wow – super easy! While I was expecting mountains of paperwork, Athena had a different idea. Everything is done online (at least in NSW) and the only trip was to AusPost to confirm my identity. The team at Athena were always quick to respond to questions and were transparent in their costs.

They are stringent in their lending criteria, so don’t be disheartened if you don’t get approved…

Still reading? Awesome! Let’s look at some pros and cons I found for joining Athena:

PRO:

  • Super Easy Refinance – the process was extremely smooth
  • Super Low Rates – they were the lowest at the time, then reduced them further out of cycle
  • 100% redraw facility – put more into your loan and pay it down sooner, withdraw as needed
  • No ongoing fees
  • Same low rate for new and existing customers
  • Nice and simple loan portal – has everything you need.
  • Offset account now available
  • Instant funds transfer from Athena to participating financial institutions

CON:

  • 100% online – for most this isn’t an issue, but if you enjoy a chat with the bank manager, this isn’t for you
  • Strict Lending Criteria – you may find they won’t lend to you even if you are comfortable financially, just a heads up
  • No offset account – currently not offering an offset account, maybe they will in the future
  • No debit card linked to the offset account
