Great Deals on electrical items

Merthyr Tydfil Borough Credit Union has teamed up with the Co-operative to offer great deals on electrical items.

You don't need to borrow money from the Credit Union to take advantage, just follow the link on our website to get free removal of your old electrical items (usally costs £9.99).

If you don't want to buy outright you can purchase items through a Credit Union Fair Finance Loan and pay small weekly amounts.

Great Prices, free delivery and all available at low weekly payments.
