Help to breathe again!

After struggling financially and mentally drained PCCU provided me with a loan. They don’t just want you to pay the loan back but to help you whilst paying back by offering you a savings plan and a Christmas plan (Christmas is always a worry and I have always struggle throughout January after the festive period so I’ve never looked forward to that period). However, last Christmas I actually looked forward to it knowing I at least had my savings and Christmas fund. They do take their time to assess your situation without judgement and have a rapid response when you apply for a product. I have recommended PCCU to struggling friends and family and they have said the same as me. I may not be where I’d like to be financially but with PCCU I can breathe watching my savings and Christmas funds build every month ready for any unexpected financial difficulties or even just Christmas. Thank you so much! Reviewed on: 11th July 2025
