The Lombard brand was discontinued after 21 June 2019.

We have taken the tough decision to discontinue the Lombard brand. That means we are no longer providing credit under this brand.

No we have restricted all cards from any spend.

Yes you must continue to pay the amounts which are required to be paid under your Lombard credit contract. If you are having financial difficulties in making your payments, please contact us as soon as possible on 1300 132 301 so that we can try to help you.

If you have previously set up a direct debit arrangement with us to periodically debit your nominated account for an agreed payment amount (such as your minimum monthly repayment or a fixed monthly payment to your account) these direct debit arrangements will remain in place.

If your Lombard account is in credit, you can make a request for a refund of the credit balance. To make that request, please call us on 1300 132 301 and we can assist you.

Any direct debit arrangements or payment instructions that you have set up with third parties (such as a merchant or a service provider) will need to be cancelled. If you do not cancel those arrangements with third parties, those transactions will be declined because your credit limit has been reduced to zero.

We sent an email or letter (depending on your preference) to all customers by the 21st of May 2019 detailing this decision.

We do apologise for the inconvenience however we could only send the email to the email address we have on file.

We do apologise for the inconvenience however we could only send the letter to the postal address we have on file.

Yes your online banking access will remain as long as you still have a balance on your account.

No you will no longer be charged an annual fee. We also refunded a portion of your annual fee depending of the remaining period on your annual account cycle when your credit limit was reduced to $0.
