Bank Spółdzielczy w Gliwicach

Bank Spółdzielczy w Gliwicach is a local cooperative bank serving Gliwice and the surrounding area, operating under Polish Banking Law and supervision of the Komisja Nadzoru Finansowego, with deposits guaranteed by the Bankowy Fundusz Gwarancyjny up to the equivalent of 100,000 EUR per depositor. The bank follows the cooperative model, with governance based on member-shareholders, and offers standard retail and business services such as PLN current accounts, savings products (savings accounts and time deposits), domestic transfers, card payments, and basic cash services; international transfers and selected foreign-currency services may be available depending on the account type. Lending covers typical needs of consumers, micro and small enterprises, and agricultural clients, subject to creditworthiness assessment and collateral requirements where applicable; interest rates are variable or fixed depending on product, and fees (including arrangement, early repayment where permitted, and ancillary charges) are disclosed in the Taryfa Opłat i Prowizji. Remote access is provided through internet banking for individuals and firms, with strong customer authentication in line with PSD2 and 3-D Secure for online card transactions; message-based authorisation and security notifications are commonly used, and service availability and cut-off times for transfers follow the bank’s published schedule of Elixir sessions. Account opening requires standard identification and KYC documentation and may need an in-branch visit; powers of attorney, company documents, and specimen signatures are required for business clients as per policy. Pricing for accounts and cards typically includes monthly maintenance and transaction fees with activity-based waivers where offered, ATM withdrawals may incur charges outside partner networks, and currency conversion for cross-border card payments uses scheme rates plus any bank margin. Customer support is provided at the head office and branches in the region and via remote channels during business hours, with complaints handled under statutory deadlines (generally 30 days, or up to 60 days for complex cases) and escalation paths to the Rzecznik Finansowy if needed. The product scope, digital functionality, and branch coverage reflect a regional cooperative profile, so prospective customers should review the current schedule of fees, interest tables, transfer cut-off times, and contractual terms before opening an account or applying for a loan.
