What the evidence means for this provider

PTSB currently groups its personal-loan pricing into amount bands and publishes a €25,000 five-year example. Variable pricing means repayments can change. Purpose-specific term limits also matter: the headline maximum does not apply identically to every ordinary online request. Use the calculator for one fixed scenario and retain the resulting total repayable.

Run a matched decision test

Enter one principal and one term on the official PTSB route, then record APR, repayment frequency, total cost of credit and total repayable from the resulting disclosure. Repeat with at least two other named products without changing those inputs. Note separately whether the rate is fixed or variable, which channel prerequisites apply, and what happens on early repayment. Stop if the personal offer changes a material figure without explanation or if the instalment fails a reduced-income budget month.
