Guidance Notes

PLEASE NOTE THAT YOU ARE BORROWING YOUR FELLOW MEMBER’S MONEY – DO NOT APPLY UNLESS YOU COMMIT TO REPAY THEIR TRUST IN YOU!!

You are eligible to borrow after a good savings pattern over a minimum of 3 months following membership. You can borrow up to 2 times your shares over a period of up to 5 years at 0.75 % per month (9.53% APR).

If you wish to borrow more than the amount stated above, you will require a guarantor who is a current member of the Credit Union with savings to guarantee the additional borrowing.

Loans are available to members, both in employment and those in receipt of benefits(income support)

There are no arrangement or setup fees

Interest is charged on a daily basis – this means that as your balance decreases the interest payments
decrease too. This is different from how most traditional lenders work

No early redemption penalties if you decided to pay off your loan early
