Dormant accounts are classified as any account which has no member generated transaction in the last 3 years.
If you think you may have an account and have not used it in some time, there is no need to join again. You are still a member. When an account becomes dormant, the account does not close – your shares will remain in the credit union and will continue to earn dividend on an annual basis. Our current minimum shareholding is €7.
What are my options?
Reactivate your account: To do this you will need to perform a transaction on your account (lodgement or withdrawal). You need to maintain a minimum shareholding of €7 to retain membership of St Colmcilles (Kells) Credit Union Ltd. You will also need valid photo I.D (passport or driving licence), proof of address (utility bill or bank statement dated within the last 3 months) and your PPS number on an official document (e.g; payslip, p60).
Close your account: To do this you will need valid photo I.D (passport or driving licence), proof of address (utility bill or bank statement dated within the last 3 months) and your PPS number on an official document (e.g; payslip, p60). to withdraw your shares and close your account.
