True Credit Union Spirit

My wife and I recently opened up an account with Companion Credit Union at the Raymond Terrace branch. It was important for us to establish ourselves with a local credit union because of our previous experiances when living in Sydney.

During the 1960’s, we helped in establishing a small credit union within my Sydney employer’s head office. My employer was kind enough to provide the office space, furniture and many other high cost necessities that allowed this new credit union to move forward and establish a strong footing. Over the years we were able to see the Credit Union grow and prosper.

Our previous Credit Union was able to provide it’s members with good rates of interest on savings and great assistance with loans in case’s of need. Indeed, the most rewarding part of the Credit Union Family, is to be aware of the number of people assisted through difficult times.

Our previous Credit Union in Sydney is still going strong, however in retirement we decided to move to Port Stephens to live. We then needed a local finance institution to handle our day to day needs and after researching the region we were sure that Companion Credit Union was the place for us. We met with Carolin (releif Branch Manager) and her staff to discuss our needs and this partnership was finalised at once.

We look forward to our future with the ‘Companion’ family,

Arthur & June
Companon Credit Union members.
