Colchester Credit Union Ltd, formed in 2002, is a Savings and Loans Co-operative open to anyone over the age of 18 years who lives, works or studies in the Borough of Colchester or District of Tendring. This is known as our Common Bond. There is a Young Savers Club for young people under 18 years. Details can be obtained on request.

Credit Unions offer a safe and easily accessible home for your savings and the opportunity to obtain a loan on ethical terms at reasonable rates.

 

Savings can be of any amount up to a maximum of £15,000.00 and at a frequency to suit the saver’s circumstances. Normally loans may be granted after a short period of saving but small emergency loans can be considered outside this policy depending on circumstances.

 

We also offer Free Life Insurance (for Adult Savers) on your savings and/or loan account:

  • No direct cost
  • Peace of mind for your next of kin
  • Savings are insured at 100% from 18 up until the age of 64
  • From 65 to 79 savings are insured at 25%
  • Any loan you have will also be insured (T&Cs apply)

 

Opening hours of Colchester Office:

 

10.00 am to 12.00 noon - every Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday
