Members with benefits: from healthcare to holiday discounts

PCS Plus is a huge package of discounts covering things like holiday car hire, ferry and train fares, cinema tickets, days out, home insurance, computers, cars, sportswear, shopping and petrol. Things that all add up to make a real difference, especially during the current the cost-of-living crisis.

As a PCS member, you can join 1^st Class Credit Union. It offers secure savings accounts, loans up to £20,000, more discounts and annual dividend payments. The company is member-led with an AGM and a commitment to the best possible standard of service.

To help with you and your family’s healthcare, PCS membership gives you access to a health cash plan with BHSF. You can claim cash back on everyday healthcare costs including optical and dental bills, therapy treatments, diagnostic health consultations and health screening, as well as 24/7, 365 days-a-year access to a GP consultation service. Separately you can also get discounts and a free eye test from Vision Express.

Other membership benefits include access to a number of free helplines (personal and domestic legal help, financial advice, debt advice, stress counselling, health and wellbeing helplines). There’s also a benevolent fund and reduced legal costs if you’re buying or selling a house. After six months of membership you become eligible for a death-in-service benefit. And there’s a free will writing service (providers differ for England or Wales and for Scotland).
