Avant Money offering €1,500 cashback to Ulster Bank and KBC switchers

Mortgage customers of Ulster Bank and KBC can avail of €1,500 cashback by switching to Avant Money before the end of March 2022.

Only recently in the news for cutting its mortgage rates by up to 0.30%, Avant Money has now announced even more good news for mortgage customers looking to switch to one of its mortgage products.

The Spanish lender is offering cashback to the tune of €1,500 to customers who switch their mortgage from either Ulster Bank or KBC, which are both due to exit the Republic of Ireland over the next year or so.

Cashback has become a popular incentive, not only for first-time buyers, but also for switchers to help cover the legal fees involved in switching mortgage. And it has certainly become a popular feature in the Irish mortgage market in recent years.

So, how does the cashback deal from Avant Money work?

Cashback from Avant Money

Mortgage customers of Ulster Bank and KBC who switch to Avant Money can now get €1,500 cashback.

There are of course a few requirements that must be met in order to be eligible for the cashback offer.

Those looking to switch must do so between January 1st and March 31st 2022.

The switching incentive also only covers plain mortgage switches, in other words, applicants must not be looking to borrow any extra money.

And as mentioned you must be switching your mortgage from either KBC or Ulster Bank - mortgage switches from other banks can't avail of the €1,500 cashback incentive. For now at least.

Where can switchers sign up?

When Avant Money launched in Ireland it only made its mortgages available through a number of select brokers, in only a few specific locations across the country.

However, customers can now avail of its market-leading mortgage rates nationwide, from around 60 mortgage brokers in total.

Its latest cashback offer, however, is only available if people switch through select brokers, approximately 20 - of which bonkers.ie is one!
