Frequently asked questions
Is there a monthly fee on the Northmill Bank savings account?+
No monthly fee applies, and the model is listed as no monthly fee. The minimum deposit is SEK 0, so you can start from nothing and still hold an easy-access account.
How much interest does the account pay and can the rate change?+
The headline rate is 1.8% and the rate type is variable, which means the return can move in either direction. Anyone relying on a fixed return for a set plan should read the terms carefully.
Is my money protected if the bank fails?+
The savings account sits under the Swedish state deposit guarantee. Deposits are covered by EU DGS up to EUR 100,000, so protection sits under the EU deposit guarantee scheme.
What does the credit line cost to draw down?+
Each withdrawal carries an origination fee of 245 SEK per withdrawal. The credit line runs at an APR of 9.71% to 29.34%, so the cost of borrowing depends on how much you draw and for how long you keep it outstanding.
How long is the credit line available for?+
The term on the credit line is 60, and it covers a loan amount of SEK 50,000. Funding is Available directly after credit approval.
Can I repay the credit line early without a charge?+
Yes. Free early repayment applies, so you can clear the balance early without an extra fee. That makes the line easier to plan around if your income changes.
What credit check do I need for the credit line?+
The credit check is a hard credit check, which is the standard check used across most of the lenders listed here. A hard search is recorded on your file, so it is worth checking your credit file first.
How do I get help if something goes wrong?+
Support runs on chat, phone and help centre, so you can reach the team by chat, phone or the help centre. The legal entity behind the brand is listed as Northmill Bank AB.
