What if you stop paying?
Your savings stay with the society. What happens next is set by its own rules, which it does not publish.
What if you need the money early?
You cannot take this money out while you are a member. You get it back when you leave.
Who this suits
You want savings you cannot dip into, and the chance to borrow against them.
You may need the money back soon. It is locked while you are a member.
