I couldn't be happier with my decision to join CCU

I couldn't be happier with my decision to join Central Credit Union. Their savings options have transformed my financial habits and given me peace of mind for the future. Central Credit Union offers a variety of savings accounts to meet different needs. The usual share account is perfect for everyday savings, but what stands out are the specialised accounts they offer. The Christmas Savings Account is a fantastic option for anyone saving for the holiday season. They encourage members not to withdraw money until October each year, making it easier to avoid the temptation of dipping into your savings early. This has helped me manage my holiday spending without stress. Another incredible option is the Fixed Term Deposit account, which currently offers an impressive 5% return on your savings. This competitive rate has made my money work harder for me, and it's an excellent choice for anyone looking to grow their savings over time. What truly sets Central Credit Union apart is their free life and loan insurance. Knowing that my next of kin could receive up to twice what I have in savings if something happens to me provides an unmatched sense of security. It's comforting to know that my efforts to save will leave a legacy for my loved ones when I go to the great beyond. Before joining Central Credit Union, saving money was a constant struggle. Now, with their supportive savings structures and the added benefit of being able to borrow against my savings, I've found a sustainable way to manage my finances. I no longer want to withdraw my savings because I know the value of leaving them untouched for future benefits. Central Credit Union has genuinely changed my financial outlook. Their savings accounts and excellent insurance benefits have given me the tools and confidence to build a secure financial future. I highly recommend them to anyone looking to improve their savings habits and provide for their loved ones. Reviewed on: 18th June 2024
