Register a Breach

The Code Compliance Committee (‘the CCC’) was established in July 2009 to ensure credit unions and mutual building societies (‘Mutuals’) that have adopted the Customer  Owned Banking Code of Practice (‘the Code’) meet the standards of good practice set out in the Code.

The CCC investigates complaints that the Code has been breached and monitors Mutuals’ compliance with the Code through compliance activities such as mystery shopping, surveys and compliance visits.
If you think that the Credit Union has breached the Code you can visit the CCC website to make a complaint.
