Medical students around the country are rushing to join Health Services Staffs Credit Union (HSSCU)! It seems that word has gotten out about their annual scholarships, bursaries and more… These, along with the fact that you can join online and be a member no matter where you live in Ireland, have made HSSCU a sweet escape for medical students around the country.
Speaking of HSSCU’s products and services that are tailored for students, HSSCU’s marketing manager, Pádraig Power stated,
“At Health Services Staffs Credit Union, we actively contest the ‘stale’ image that people can associate with credit unions. We are one of Ireland’s leading and most progressive CUs and with our new member onboarding, it has never been as easy to join.
Onboarding allows students from doctors, nurses, pharmacists, physiotherapists, dentists and much more to join HSSCU from the comfort of their couch or even on the bus/train to college. All they have to do is visit our website and fill out the application. As well as this, we are getting constant questions about our annual scholarships where around €50,000 is given out annually – and our member prize draw with over €800,000 in prizes in 2018 alone! The younger demographic have definitely pricked their ears and started paying us even more attention.”
HSSCU has catered for students for years with innovative technology. For example, HSSCU has a full online account with fingerprint access via their app (CUAnywhere). Using HSSCU’s online banking, all members can check their accounts, transfer funds, apply for loans and much more. Word is that HSSCU is also going to be an early adopter of a new debit card and current account planned for release later on in 2019!
Of course, in addition to the above, HSSCU has a host of other amazing products including education, car and holiday loans to Christmas savings accounts and free insurances – all of which are great for a student on a budget!
Another benefit of joining HSSCU is their quarterly ‘Join A Friend’ competition. Similar to onboarding, word has gotten out about this lucky dip with many members now asking their fellow medical students and their family members to join (that’s right, once you are a member, your family can also join), meaning you could be in with a chance to win €100! And of course, the more of your friends/family that join, the higher the odds.
With all of the above, it’s no wonder that HSSCU is garnering more and more attention from the student population and, of course, from all of those who work in the healthcare sector.
With over 43,000 members, 6 offices and amazing online services, HSSCU really is tailoring to everybody from young to old. The question is – will you be joining?
