What is a fixed-term loan?

A fixed-term loan is a loan where the interest rate and monthly payment amount are fixed for the entire term of the loan, so you know exactly how much you will need to pay each month. This can be helpful for budgeting and planning your finances.

Why choose a fixed-term loan?

Predictability: The fixed interest rate and monthly payment amount can give you peace of mind and help you budget your finances.

Stability: Fixed-term loans can provide financial stability, especially during times of economic uncertainty.

What are the requirements to apply for a 7-year fixed loan from Croí Laighean Credit Union?

To borrow, you must be a member of Croí Laighean Credit Union. If you live or work in our common bond, you are eligible to join.

If you are an existing member, you need to ensure your ID and proof of address on file are up-to-date, and your account is not dormant (an account is marked dormant if there has been no member-initiated activity in 3 years or more).

You don’t need to be a member for a period of time, or have savings with us – all loans are assessed on the member’s ability to repay.

What documents do I need to apply for the loan?

– Payslips/Social Welfare/Pension: If your wages/payments are paid into your bank account, we need your most recent payslip/payment receipt. If not, we’ll need your last 3 payslips/payment receipts.

Fixed term Loan or Variable Loan – which is better?

A fixed-term loan gives you peace of mind with set repayments and a clear end date. A variable loan is more flexible — you can pay it off quicker or top it up if needed. If you like predictability, go fixed. If you like wiggle room, go variable. Either way, we’re here to help you choose what’s right for you.

Can I prepay my 7-year fixed loan?

You can’t technically prepay a 7-year fixed loan, since it’s set up with fixed payments over a fixed time, but we’re always happy to work with you. If you’ve got extra funds, you can pop them into your account, and they’ll be there when your loan payment is due. Need to change your payment date? Give us a call and we’ll do our best to sort it for you.
