New Deposit Interest Rates Announced

With the improving deposit interest rates available to the credit union we are happy to announce that we are now in a position to improve the available interest rates for our members. Members have multiple savings options available through the credit union, share accounts, unit-linked savings and investment options, and notice and term deposit accounts. See other pages for information on our shares and unit-linked savings options. The notice and term deposit accounts and the current interest rates are listed in the table below with more information about each product below the table. For full terms and conditions of each product, please see the individual application form which are available in the Finnstown office or can be downloaded through the PDF links below.

Members can save by lump sum, instalment, or a combination of both up to the limit of each account. This is your account, your way, so you can stop and start payments to suit you. However, you can only access the funds held in the account on the maturity of the deposit or on expiry of the required notice period.

The interest will be paid once per year, on the last working day of September. The prevailing DIRT rate will be deducted unless you have an exemption and have completed form DE1, available from the Finnstown office or from Revenue.ie

All members are subject to maximum savings of €100,000 across all savings accounts in the credit union.
