Members eNewsletter December edition
Season’s Greetings!
Our chair, Mukesh Malhotra shares his end of year message which gives you the highlights of Thamesbank Credit Union from 2020/2021.
“The past 18 months has perhaps been the most challenging in all our lives with the COVID-19 pandemic.
I want to highlight that our people and members should never underestimate the importance of the credit union movement in the local community, not only as a financial institution but for the social good it has done.
Thamesbank Credit Union has continued to provide an excellent customer experience in the area of our common bond including London Boroughs of Ealing, Hounslow, Richmond, Kingston, Wandsworth and the Borough of Spelthorne in Surrey. Also, to companies who are our corporate partners. We would like to increase these as we can offer better services than other financial institutions…”
