WE HAVE SOMETHING IN COMMON
Our Credit Union lets people in the community come together to save and borrow money at low rates. It is operated on a not-for-profit basis and surplus income is returned to members.
You must be living, working or attending school within our Common Bond area (Dublin 15) in order to become a member.
I always recommend the Credit Union to anyone I know it has been a lifeline to me and especially this one. I have great respect for all the staff and the whole concept of the Credit union
