Insurance Types
Portadown Credit Union offers its members a range of insurance products on savings and loans, as well as Death Benefit Insurance.
Insurance on Savings
Portadown Credit Union, like other Credit Unions affiliated to the Irish League of Credit Unions offers its members a unique and, most importantly, free insurance product.
Every pound which you save, up to the age of 55 and not withdrawn, in the event of your death is doubled. This applies to a maximum savings value of £15,000 and is payable to the person you have recommended on your form of nomination up to the statutory maximum limit of £20,000.
Savings made between the ages of 55 and 70 still receive an insurance premium, but the amount that is applied reduces as the member gets older.
- Every £1 saved before the age of 55- Provides £1 of insurance
- Every £1 saved between the age of 55- 59- Provides 75p of insurance
- Every £1 saved between the age of 60- 64- Provides 50p of insurance
