It's easy to become a Member - Join on-line below or download the Application Form
When you join we open a regular savings account for you - other banking services are available to you when we have completed this process and confirmed your Membership number, usually by return or on next working day.
You need to live or work in Warwickshire and be able to provide evidence of your identity.
Have two types of ID ready - see section 7 below - you can take photos of your documents or upload them as PDFs.
Fees
There are no fees for joining the Credit Union, but we ask that you open your account with a minimum deposit of £1.
Building a savings 'habit'
Part of our aims is to support Members to build financial stability. One way we do this is to ask Members to set up a regular savings plan when they join. This can start from as little as £1 per week. Not only does this start to build a little nest egg but regular savers enjoy discounted interest rates if ever a loan is needed.
Personal Information
Rugby Credit Union will conduct checks to verify personal information with relevant authorities and with credit reference and fraud prevention agencies and you agree they can share personal information with these agencies within the terms laid down in Rugby Credit Union’s Privacy Notice.
A copy of Rugby Credit Union’s Privacy Notice is available from the office or here on our website. It explains why we need the personal information you provide to support a Membership Application and how we will use, store, share and control your information. Your rights under the General Data Protection Regulations are detailed as are the ways you may seek advice or make a complaint.
Please contact our office if you are having any difficulty with a Membership Application.
It is often easier to make regular payments, whether savings or loan repayments, by bank standing order. Please download the standing order form and email, post it or bring it to the office.
Rugby Credit union is a community bank that offers old-fashioned face-to-face services to everyone living or working in Warwickshire. You can become a member to open a savings account and to apply for a loan. As the credit union is a volunteer-led organisation you may want to help the credit union by becoming a volunteer yourself.
