    Business Star Saver
    ^Where no withdrawals are made during the calendar month (with the last business day of the month at 5pm NSW time being the cut off), the bonus rate of interest will be applied in addition to the standard base interest rate of 4.20% p.a. Where a withdrawal is made during the calendar month, the interest payable for that month will only be the standard base interest rate of 1.00%p.a.

If you choose to withdraw from your term deposit before the end of its term, you’ll need to give us 31 days’ notice and pay a $30 administration fee for the early redemption. It’s also important to note that this can affect the interest we pay you, with an early redemption interest rate of 0.10%p.a. applicable. When your term ends, you have a ‘Grace Period’ of seven calendar days to manage your term deposit, otherwise we will reinvest your balance for you for the same term, at the applicable advertised interest rate at the time.

Almost closed by COVID. Now a community hub. Jason shares how SCCU helped. 

 

Xcell Health & Fitness opened in 2014 with a simple goal: to be an important part of the community, somewhere people could feel connected and supported. 

Jason Thatcher was already a personal SCCU customer when he moved the business banking across in 2016. Then 2020 arrived. With COVID closing the gym for six months, there was no income and the bills kept coming. For SCCU, Jason says, it wasn’t just about numbers. It was about finding ways to support them through a hard time. 

Today, Xcell has grown from 350 to 2,000 square metres, with 8 full-time employees and more than 40 contractors. Watch Jason’s story and see how we could support your business.

Kelly is amazing. She is like no Premium Banker we’ve ever had- super responsive and reliable, personable. A diamond in the rough!

Steve Distant was very efficient, explained the process of changing banks and refinancing our loans very well. He was always available to answer questions and help at any time. Great service! I had some issues setting up fund transfers to other institutions so went to the local branch. The manager at Murwillumbah was delightful, listened carefully, understood the issue and suggested I set up the transfers in net banking rather than the app. This worked! The call centre staff have also been very helpful, happy to listen and help and very human in their interactions. Their advice has been excellent. We are extremely pleased with the individual, local branch and call centre services. Hopefully I won’t need to take up their time anymore now that I’ve mastered the SCCU banking processes. Thank you!

Shane provided amazing customer service from start to finish. He was extremely knowledgeable, respectful, and attended to every detail of the process with thoroughness and professionalism. This kind of customer service is almost unheard of these days, so it was an absolute delight to work with Shane. The interest rate on my company car was fantastic and the terms of the loan were both fair and reasonable. I 100% recommend Shane and Southern Cross Credit Union for obtaining financing for a vehicle and wouldn't use anyone else for my business going forward. Thanks to Shane and his team!
