They are extremely helpful with any inquiries and very pleasant when talking to you over all it's a great place for people to feel like they matter compared to trying to get a loan anywhere else which is next to impossible without over the odds interest rates. Reviewed on: 23rd June 2025

My experience with PCCU has been great.

My experience with PCCU has been great. When you apply for the loan it is pretty easy to do and it also helps out families that are struggling a little. The money is put into your bank quickly usually within the next day or two once it has been allowed. Reviewed on: 23rd June 2025

Pennine credit union offers loans to families paying back a little each week which is amazing they take direct payments so we never miss a payment which is great for families. I will recommend to all my family and friends that Pennines credit union is the one for low income families to get a loan. I save also with them which is amazing because I’ve never saved before I joined Pennines credit union. I’m a grateful customer of them and would highly recommend them. Reviewed on: 23rd June 2025
