About B & S Credit Union Limited

B & S Credit Union Limited operates as a member-owned financial cooperative, offering everyday savings (“shares”), junior accounts, fixed-term deposits, and consumer lending such as personal, car, education, and home-improvement loans, with mortgage availability dependent on internal policy and capacity. Returns on savings are typically paid as a dividend approved at the annual general meeting rather than a fixed interest rate, and are not guaranteed; loan pricing is usually quoted as a clear APR on a reducing balance. Membership is restricted by a common bond (often based on residence, employment, or association) and requires standard identification, address verification, and proof of eligibility, with a minimum opening share and potential caps on total savings. Access is provided through branch services with defined opening hours, supplemented by online banking and a mobile app where offered; bank transfers, standing orders, and direct debits may be supported, while card services and ATM access depend on third‑party arrangements and are not universal. Lending decisions are based on affordability, credit checks, and documentation, and can include limits, security, or guarantors for higher amounts; missed or late payments can incur fees. Governance is by a member‑elected board, with policies, rates, and dividends subject to change at AGMs. The credit union operates under applicable regulatory and prudential standards, and savings protection depends on participation in any statutory or mutual scheme in its jurisdiction. Service scope, digital features, fees, and complaint pathways vary; prospective members should review the latest rate sheets, terms, and eligibility criteria directly from official materials before applying.
