Members

When you join Thomastown Credit Union you not only become a member, but also an owner of your local credit union. You share your ownership with your community, neighbours, relatives and friends.

You join, you support our services, and through volunteering, you help us run your local credit union.

We are a non-profit financial co-operative serving the needs of our community. As an owner, you enjoy shareholder benefits of getting a return on your Shares in the form of a dividend, as well as new products and services being available to you. In lending, you receive competitive interest rates.

Being a shareholder we encourage members to support all our services. The more services you use, the stronger the credit union becomes. Therefore, the stronger you become.

Democratic Control

You tell us that we are “local”, “more people oriented” and that you “feel involved”. That is because as an owner and a member, you have a say in how we are run and in the services we offer you.

The best way to exercise your membership is to use our services and attend our Annual General Meeting in early December or January.

At our Annual General meeting, every member has one vote. Members get an opportunity to review our financial accounts, ask questions, vote on important matters and elect local members. These elected members will act on your behalf as voluntary directors and supervisors.
