If you have a Macquarie car or equipment loan and are in need of financial support due to COVID-19, we encourage you to call us at 1300 368 908. Our financial assistance team will be available to discuss your specific circumstances and take you through the options we have available to support you.
If you’re currently on a payment pause, the information below will help you understand what this means for you.
During the payment pause period, you will not need to make any repayments on your car or equipment loan. Depending on your loan type, interest may be charged during the payment pause period. This means the interest you would have paid during the payment pause will be added to your loan. At the end of your payment pause, your loan term will be extended to cover the missed payments, and this interest, if applicable. Please refer to the FAQ “Will interest be charged during the payment pause?” to understand how your loan will be impacted.
