Money matters - everyone counts

WDH working in partnership with White Rose Credit Union

Are you:

  • having problems getting a bank account
  • thinking of borrowing money but do not want to be charged high interest rates
  • or just want to save for that rainy day

Why not come along to one of our drop in sessions and find out more about the real benefits of your Local Credit Union and the outstanding services you can enjoy as a member.

In 2008 we’ll be holding a series of drop-in information sessions throughout the district, called "Money matters – everyone counts", so you can find out more about how you can get a bank account even if you couldn’t get one in the past. It will also be easier to get an instant, low-interest loan.

Remember to bring along two forms of identification, one to prove where you live and one to prove who you are e.g.

A. To prove WHO you are...

UK or EU Passport – current and signed

Current benefits book or original notification letter that confirms your right to benefits or State Pension

Old style FULL driving – provisional is not acceptable

Current UK or EEA photo card driving licence (full or provisional)

B. To prove WHERE you LIVE…

Current Housing Association rent card or tenancy agreement.

Recent utility bill: Telephone – cable or BT (or other landline) NOT mobile

Current benefits book or original notification letter that confirms your right to benefits or State Pension.

The same document cannot be used as proof for both identity and address

C. If you are having trouble providing the correct documents…

Please don’t worry, but do let us know your situation. We may be able to use other methods of checking your name and address (such as the electoral register). We will do what we can to help!

See the dates of the sessions below. We’ll be sending out information leaflets soon
