Everyone benefits from regular saving; it allows you to work towards your goals and gives peace of mind for emergencies.
Regular saving can be difficult but at Right Way Credit Union it’s easy, with local access at convenient times and places.
There are many ways in which you can pay into your credit union account; you can make deposits by setting up a standing order, or pay in using cash in one of our offices.
Please note, that for your account to be considered ‘Active’ we require members to be regularly saving and have at least a minimum of £5 in your account. If you are not regularly saving your account will be made ‘Dormant’ and the Credit Union will begin the Dormant Procedure Process. For more information or if you have any questions, please email info@rwcu.co.uk
The credit union also offers ‘Payroll Savings’; this is when you can save directly from your pay. If this is something you may be interested in, check to see if your employer is one of our partners. If your employer isn’t one of our partners speak to your employer to see if this would be something they would be interested in and send us an email to info@rwcu.co.uk
If you have online banking you can set the standing order up yourself, please click here for more information.
