    However we plan, we don’t always get time to prepare for when we die or lose a loved one – but with Credit Union Plus, you can help your loved ones meet the cost of funeral expenses in the event of your untimely death.

    Our new Bereavement Benefit Programme provides peace of mind for you and your family in one quick and easy step – with the certainty of a guaranteed payment of €6,000, no medical assessment and an affordable fee that suits your needs and expectations.

    • €6,000 is paid to your family in the event of your death.

    The best bits?

    • Benefit fixed at €6,000 – regardless of savings
    • Available to all members*
    • No Medical
    • Cost is only €125 per year – paid annually

     

    Important Information you need to know

    A pre-existing medical condition limitation applies to this programme, which means that cover is not provided if a member were to die from a pre-existing medical condition during the first six months of their membership of the programme.

    Added Value

    Our new Bereavement Benefit Programme is designed to compliment our Life Plus Savings Benefit – for example; upon the bereavement of an eligible member, both benefits will be paid and the combined benefit could result in a payment of up to €8,000* (that’s €6,000 for Life Plus Bereavement Benefit and up to €2,000 for their Life Plus Savings Benefit) – and the Savings Benefit is FREE!

    * Life savings benefit is subject to the value of savings and your age at death.
