Family Loans in Teesside

Family loans are designed for those claiming child benefit who need an extra hand. At South Tees Community Bank, our goal as a family loan lender in Teesside is to help you access flexible and fair finance support where needed.

What is a family loan?

Not to be confused with a loan from a family member, our Family Loan product has been created for families or individuals who receive child benefit and want an extra helping hand. There are no additional types of family loan available from South Tees Community Bank – just one simple family loan product for supporting you and your family.

When properly managed, a family loan can help you boost your credit rating and can be used to build your savings. It can be an essential lifeline in times of need as well as a way to start building towards your family’s future.

How does our family loan work?

Our ‘Family Loan’ product allows all families/individuals in receipt of child benefit to have a family loan of up to £500 from the Credit Union without having a credit check – this will be conditional upon child benefit being paid directly from the DWP to the Credit Union.

The whole child benefit can be used to make the repayments however a smaller amount may be agreed with the member following an affordability check. Once the loan payment is made any extra amount can then either be left in as savings, withdrawn weekly/monthly or split between savings and withdrawal.

Our members are able to transfer from their savings account direct to a bank account using our online banking facility.

Criteria for the loan is simple, you must;

• Be aged over 18
• Be in receipt of Child Benefit and agree to have it paid in to Moneywise Credit Union and sign the relevant form before we send the funds
• Have a high street bank or ENGAGE account
• Agree to Moneywise Credit Union rules
