West Cheshire Credit Union are pleased to be working in partnership with the Illegal Money Lending Team  to encourage residents to use the credit union as a safe and affordable alternative to illegal money lenders as well as doorstep and payday lenders.

The ILMT have provided us with funding to reward a number of new members who decide to open a credit union family loan account and save with us.

Initially the reward scheme is open to new members applying for one of our Family Loans and who fulfil the following criteria*,

Join us at our Chester office next week for our first 'My Money Week' where we will be helping local residents save money!

We have lots going on, information and advice from the credit union and a number of other organisations as well as activities, competitions and giveaways so pop along and say hello.  We will be there from 10am to 2pm.

Great news, you can now access your account balances 24 hours a day 7 days a week!

The maximum amount that you can now apply for with our Child Benefit Saving and Loan Account has increased to £650.

Here at West Cheshire Credit Union we are celebrating over 200 new members and nearly 700 loans issued since we opened our new Chester City Centre premises!
