Important Information and Comparison Rate Warning

Base criteria of: a $400,000 loan amount, variable, fixed, principal and interest (P&I) home loans with an LVR (loan-to-value) ratio of at least 80%. However, the ‘Compare Home Loans’ table allows for calculations to be made on variables as selected and input by the user. Some products will be marked as promoted, featured or sponsored and may appear prominently in the tables regardless of their attributes. All products will list the LVR with the product and rate which are clearly published on the product provider’s website. Monthly repayments, once the base criteria are altered by the user, will be based on the selected products’ advertised rates and determined by the loan amount, repayment type, loan term and LVR as input by the user/you. *The Comparison rate is based on a $150,000 loan over 25 years. Warning: this comparison rate is true only for this example and may not include all fees and charges. Different terms, fees or other loan amounts might result in a different comparison rate.

Southern Cross Credit Union (SCCU) is a customer-owned credit union that was formed in 1966 in the Tweed Valley of NSW. It was formerly known as the Tweed Byron Credit Union before being renamed the Southern Cross Credit Union in 1997.

From its humble beginnings meeting the financial needs of Tweed Valley banana growers, it has expanded to become a multi-million dollar business providing financial services to customers across the Far North Coast of NSW and around Australia. 

The credit union’s vision is to be the first choice for easy-to-understand banking. Its purpose is to help its customers, people and community realise their dreams. Meanwhile, its values are as follows:

  • Customer Focused – “We get to know our customers by making your banking experience personal.”
  • Community – “We connect and engage with our community.”
  • Care – “We care for each other, our community and our environment.”
  • Integrity – “We are professional, reliable and serious about the financial well-being of our customers.”
  • Empowerment – “We empower our customers to take control of their banking.”

SCCU gives back to the community through the following measures:

  • New Customer Donations – SCCU donates on your behalf when you become a customer
  • Community Grants – Local organisations working on a project or event have an opportunity to access one of three $5,000 community grants
  • Community Partnerships – Local organisations, groups and teams making a difference in the community receive funding of $1,000
  • Community Rewards – Local groups and clubs who support SCCU receive financial rewards
