Financial Protection

At Thistle Credit Union we’re members of The Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS), which automatically gives you savings protection for up to the value of £120,000. The FSCS is funded by the financial services industry and is free to consumers, meaning if your credit union goes out of business you will receive your money back within seven days (T&Cs apply).
