RMT Credit Union
RMT ADVANCE
a great new savings & credit account for RMT members
The RMT ADVANCE account is a great new way for
RMT members to have access to a guaranteed lump
sum once or twice a year, while building up a
savings reserve.
The key features of the RMT ADVANCE account are:
•
A fixed monthly premium which guarantees a
yearly cash Advance paid directly to you
•
You can set up two schemes so that you have
a payout to coincide with the Christmas and
summer holidays
•
Choose the premiums and cash advance to suit
your needs
•
Continual growth of a cash reserve which
attracts a dividend to boost savings
•
The premiums are structured so that in each
12 months you have repaid the value of your
Advance in full.
By paying the regular premium of your choice you
set up a credit agreement for the Advance that will
generate an automatic payment to you at the
following times:
•
Christmas ADVANCE paid on the second
Friday of December
•
Summer ADVANCE paid on the second Friday
of June
This will mean that you will have ready cash
available for the Christmas spending spree or your
summer holidays, or both.
The RMT Advance loan is at a very low cost 9.9%
APR, which is extremely good value. For every
£100 you borrow you will only pay £5.48 in interest
over the 12 months. Of course your savings also
attract our Credit Union dividend (equivalent to
interest) which in the last 2 years has been 3%. This
means that while you have access to a guaranteed
lump sum, your savings will continue to accumulate.
The RMT ADVANCE account offers great value and
benefits for RMT members. If you wish to apply for
an account please complete the application form
attached.
•
You can still get a Christmas 2007 advance if
you submit your application before 12th May
2007, but the savings accumulated in the first
year will be reduced compared to those
illustrated below.
•
For a Summer ADVANCE 2008 we will need
your completed application before 12th
November 2007 so that we can get your
premium payments established.
Don’t forget to include your proofs of identity and
address, which are required by law. We will return
your documents straight away, or you can send us
copies if they are verified by your branch secretary
or employer etc.

All premiums are rounded to nearest £ for the purposes of illustration. You will be informed of the precise premium. The
premium will repay the Advance within 12 months while you continue to save £5 per month. Let us know if you wish to save
more. The accumulated savings illustrated assume premiums are paid for a full 12 months before the first Advance.
