Anyone can join B.H.K. Credit Union if they live or work within our Common Bond.
New Members are always welcome so call in and bring with you the required forms of identification.

In line with current legislation (Criminal Justice Act 1994), you must provide proof of the following:

Photographic Proof of Identity
i.e. a current valid passport or driving licence

Written Proof of Address
i.e. a recent household bill such as a telephone bill or electricity bill (dated within the last 3 months)

Proof of PPS Number
This can be obtained from the Department of Social Welfare. It also appears on official government documentation such as your P60, Social Welfare Card, tax credits allowance, payslips etc.

Please note: Under 16's require their original birth cert, proof of their PPS no. and be accompanied by a parent or guardian who needs proof of permanent address.

Our joining fee is just €1 and with a minimum deposit of €1 you are now a shareholder with your Credit Union.

Nomination Forms
When joining, all members over the age of 16 will be asked to complete a Nomination Form i.e. naming the person or persons they wish to leave their money to should anything happen to them.

Nomination Forms - Important Reminder - Keep it up to Date!

Members may nominate a person or persons to become entitled, at his/her death, to their savings, subject to a maximum of €23,000. Members who wish to complete a nomination form or amend their current one may do so at any time in the Credit Union office.

You may revoke or vary your nomination at any time by completing a new nomination form.

A nomination is not revocable or variable by the terms of your will or by a codicil to your will.

A nomination is automatically revoked when your nominee dies before you. In this case, you should consider completing a new nomination. If you do not, your property in the credit union will form part of your estate.

A nomination is automatically revoked by your subsequent marriage.

Where your personal circumstances change (e.g. marriage, divorce or separation) you should review your nomination at that time.

The nominated property does not form part of a deceased person's estate.

BHK Credit Union encourages all members to complete a valid Nomination Form today.
