We accept loan or finance contract types as long as the loan is with a registered Australian finance provider, and you have a regular required monthly repayment to this financial provider. For example: a financed car loan, motorcycle loan, house loan, or personal loan.
You must be a permanent resident of Australia, be at least 18 years of age and under the age of 67, have a current finance contract, and a regular required monthly repayment to this financial provider.
Loan repayments are difficult if you have to take time off work. If that's due to illness or injury, unemployment as a result of redundancy, retrenchment, or your employer ceasing to operate, eric’s Financial Repayment Insurance (FRI) can help you cover the loan repayments to your financier, making sure that your payments are sorted and you can focus on getting yourself back on your feet!
