Save With Us

"Easy and rewarding"

Saving with Grampian Credit Union

Building up savings with us couldn’t be simpler.  Once you have chosen the amount you want to save and the method you wish to save through money will be automatically transferred into your account on a weekly/monthly basis. 

You can also add additional funds to your account at any time by using our PayPoint cards.  This is an ideal way to add to your savings next time go to the Post Office or visit your nearest convenience store for a pint of milk.

 To find your nearest PayPoint agent please follow this link:

Accessing your savings

To access your savings call the office and we will either have your savings transferred into your bank account or issue you with a cheque.

Please note: You may only withdraw your savings if they are not secured against a loan.

Do I receive interest on my savings?

Savings are held as shares. Instead of interest on savings members will receive a dividend - the level of dividend will depend on the performance of the credit union that year.
