If your child benefit is paid into Riverside Credit Union, you can take advantage of our Starter loan.
Once your child benefit has been transferred into your Credit Union account, you can get an instant loan of £1000.00 depending on the number of children you are receiving child benefit for. This loan must be paid off within 30 weeks.
A second Starter loan of up to £1000.00 is available once your first loan is fully repaid and as long as you have been saving regularly and have £100 in your saving account. Again this is dependant on the number of children you are receiving child benefit for.
