About Goresbridge Credit Union Limited

Goresbridge Credit Union Limited is a member-owned financial co‑operative serving a defined common bond centered on Goresbridge and surrounding areas, operating under the Credit Union Act 1997 and regulated by the Central Bank of Ireland. Membership is limited to individuals with an eligible connection to the common bond and requires standard identification and address verification; junior accounts are typically available for minors via a parent or guardian. Core services include savings (held as “shares”) and unsecured personal lending for purposes such as car purchase, home improvement, education, or general use, with loan decisions based on affordability and credit history. Rates, maximum terms, and lending criteria are published by the credit union and can vary by product; early repayment on loans is generally permitted without penalty. Dividends or interest on members’ savings are not guaranteed and depend on surplus and board decisions each year. Member deposits and shares are protected by the Irish Deposit Guarantee Scheme up to €100,000 per eligible depositor per institution. The credit union publishes audited annual financial statements and is required to maintain regulatory reserves. Access is primarily branch-based; remote services such as online or mobile banking, card facilities, and electronic payments may be available depending on the credit union’s chosen service providers and require registration. Fees and charges, where applicable, are set out in the credit union’s schedule of charges. Complaints that are not resolved directly can be escalated to the Financial Services and Pensions Ombudsman. Prospective members and borrowers should confirm current eligibility, documentation requirements, service availability, and product pricing with Goresbridge Credit Union Limited before applying.
