Insurance

Loan Protection Insurance is a benefit we provide to our members at no direct cost when they borrow from us. It can protect eligible members by repaying their loans in the unfortunate event of death. This valuable benefit gives credit union borrowers peace of mind when they borrow. Members can take out a Termonmaguirk Credit Union loan in full confidence, knowing that their next of kin won’t be left with that burden.

Like all insurance policies, terms and conditions apply. Cover ceases at the age of 85.

Loan Interest Rebate *

The loan interest rebate is a percentage of the interest paid by the borrowing member, which is given back to them at the end of the year from the surplus of income. The percentage is proposed at the AGM and if agreed is then paid into the members’ savings accounts the next day. In 2024 a 45% Interest Rebate was returned to members.

The Standard Loan (up to £14,999) is the only Loan Product  that will avail of the Loan Interest Rebate.

The Large Loan (£15,000 to £30,000) and Secured Loan (covered by share balance) will avail of lower interest rate when repaying their loan – the lower interest rate is the Loan Interest Rebate ‘up front’.

We understand that circumstances can change for a variety of reasons. In the event of a change, we would urge any member to get in contact with the office as soon as possible. It is very important to contact us early as we will be in a much better position to assess the situation. Our Credit Control staff are friendly, non-judgemental and understanding and will meet with you privately to discuss how we can support you. Please do not let the problem get out of control. WE ARE HERE FOR YOU!
