Our verdict

Fibank suits Bulgarian borrowers who want one bank to cover consumer and consolidation lending plus a housing loan, and its headline APR of 6.49% is the number to compare first. The catch is that the rate is variable, so the instalment you start on is not the one you finish on.

Scored 9.3 / 10 by BorrowCue.

Who it suits

  • Bulgarian adults with proven regular income borrowing for a renovation or a debt tidy up.
  • Borrowers who want funds within minutes and early repayment at no extra cost.

Where it sits among rivals

On loan size Fibank sits at position 48 of 685, and on annual percentage rate at position 93 of 350. Readers weighing cost will read more into the rate position than the size position: a lender can rank well on price while offering modest ceilings. Fibank is one of those, priced low and capped low.

Who runs it

The lender is First Investment Bank AD (Pyrva investitsionna banka AD), based in Bulgaria and founded in 1993, and the Bulgarian National Bank is the regulator named for it. Support runs on email, phone and help centre, so email, phone and a help centre all sit with the bank that holds the loan. You deal with one named counterparty for the whole repayment.

Frequently asked questions

What rate does Fibank charge, and can it change?+

The consumer loan runs at a headline APR of 6.49% and its rate type is variable, so treat that figure as a starting point rather than a promise for the whole term. On the housing loan the initial rate is 2.39%. Monzo Flex lists 10% to 23% if you want a stated range to set beside it.

What fees does a Fibank loan carry?+

The arrangement fee on the consumer loan is free when you apply online, and a branch application carries a fee, so online is the cheaper route. The housing loan adds a product fee of €255.65 on top of its rate. Early repayment, meanwhile, is free.

How much can I borrow, and over what term?+

Consumer borrowing reaches up to €50,000 and runs over a term of up to 120. The published example is a promotional loan at 6.49% on a mid sized amount, with a monthly instalment and a total repayable figure for that scenario. The offer sits in a single market, so larger sums need a different lender.

How fast is the money paid out?+

Funds are drawn within minutes after you apply fully online and sign the contract, and same day funding sits in the same day funding list. Most lenders in this comparison also offer same day funding, at 82.9% of brands compared, so treat speed as standard.

Who runs Fibank, and who regulates it?+

The lender is First Investment Bank AD (Pyrva investitsionna banka AD), based in Bulgaria and founded in 1993. The Bulgarian National Bank is the regulator named for it, so the credit sits with a supervised bank rather than an intermediary, and you deal with one named counterparty for the whole repayment.

What does the housing loan look like?+

The housing loan starts at an initial rate of 2.39% with an APRC of 3.08% and a maximum loan to value of 85%. It covers purchase, remortgage and home equity purposes, so it can fund a buy, a switch of lender or borrowing against a property you already hold.

Who can apply for a Fibank loan?+

Applicants must be adults within the bank's age range at the point of disbursement, with proven regular income, and a higher net monthly income on the largest amounts, near the up to €50,000 ceiling. Borrowing covers personal, debt consolidation and home improvement needs, so one application can cover a project or a debt tidy up.
