    Becoming a member

Membership of Dungiven Credit Union is open to anyone who lives or works in the Dungiven area.

The applicant must also be proposed and seconded by two persons who are already members. The Law prohibits the Credit Union from opening an account for a new member unless satisfactory proof of identity and appropriate address verification documents are produced (See list below). When the application has been approved by the Board or Membership Officer and an entrance fee of £5.00 paid, the new member may then open the account. The minimum amount to keep an account open is £5.00.
