Loan Application Process

Credit Union Plus will consider loan applications from members for any worthwhile purpose. Each application is treated in the utmost confidence and will be considered on its own merits. It is our policy to meet the borrowing requirements of as many members as possible.

Please note that a loan application cannot be considered without CCR consent and a Loan Application Checklist. There will be various conditions that must be complied with depending on your previous loan history.
* Terms & Conditions apply

Loan applications are considered by Loans Officers or our Credit Committee, and decisions are made as quickly as possible in all cases – typically within just two days.

In deciding whether or not to grant the loan, we take into account the member’s record of saving and repayments, their CCR report, as well as their ability to repay. Once the loan is granted, the member can call in to the office and a staff member will discuss the credit agreement with them.

If the member decides to avail of the loan, they will sign a credit agreement which is a legally binding document, and commit to regular repayments. The member is then issued with a copy of the credit agreement outlining their repayment schedule, terms and conditions of borrowing etc.

Credit Union Plus is flexible with regard to repayment plans, though there are some legal limitations to the term and amount of loans. Our members will be advised on the best repayment plan to meet their own circumstances.

Should you experience difficulties in meeting repayment commitments, you should immediately explain the situation to us and we will treat the matter sympathetically and in total confidence.

Checking Your History With The Central Credit Register

When you are applying for a loan Credit Union Plus will run various credit checks about you using services such as CCR, Stubbs and others detailing your credit history in other financial institutions.

The Board of Directors has a responsibility under Credit Union and Consumer Credit Legislation to safeguard the assets of the Credit Union and to ensure that members do not become over-indebted.

The Central Credit Register (CCR) was set up by the Central Bank of Ireland under the Credit Reporting Act 2013. Since 30 June 2017 lenders including banks, credit unions, and any other lender that provides consumer loans for €500 or more, have submitted personal and credit information on those loans to the Central Credit Register every month.

From 30 September 2018, we are required to request your credit report from the CCR if you have applied for a loan of €2,000 or more.

We may also obtain your credit report if:

  • you have asked for a re-structure of an existing loan
  • if there are arrears on an existing loan
  • if you have breached the limit on a credit card or overdraft

Further information about the CCR is available here – https://www.centralcreditregister.ie/borrower-area/

Loan Protection Insurance

Loan Protection Insurance is the insurance cover Credit Union Plus provides on the lives of its borrowing members. This means that if an insured member dies, the loan is paid in full, subject to the conditions of the insurance contract.

To ensure members have insurance on their loan, they will be asked to sign a declaration on their loan application that they are/are not in good health. For full details of pre-condition loan insurance, please refer to the insurance section on our website or speak to any staff member.

Arrears

We’re also highly sympathetic when the unexpected happens. Should you lose your job, for example, we’ll happily sit down and talk with you in a constructive and supportive manner, with a view to working out a repayment schedule that’s realistic and sustainable. If you are having problems in that regard you can talk with us in confidence. We’re here to help.

Phone us at 046 90 21395 and discuss your situation with our experienced credit control team, or better still, call in to the office for a face to face discussion.

Don’t delay contacting us with arrears building up, this will only make the problem worse. We’re here to discuss your situation in confidence and will work with you to agree a plan for making repayments. It will help greatly if you can bring all your documentation with you, such as payslips (including social welfare payments) and details of any other commitments you may have. Click here to download Budgeting Sheet.
