It's okay for getting smaller lawns but no good for getting larger loans even if you've been with them for over nearly 10 years. Held back just like the larger Loan companies because you're disabled and unemployable Reviewed on: 11th July 2025
Reply from Northern Community Bank (formerly Pennine Community Credit Union) Hi Mr K, Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review and for being a loyal member for nearly 10 years – we truly appreciate your continued support. We’re really sorry to hear that you feel let down by your recent experience. That’s never how we want any of our members to feel. We understand how frustrating it can be when a loan decision doesn’t go the way you’d hoped, especially after such a long relationship with us. Please be assured that we never judge anyone based on their personal circumstances, and disability or employment status is never a reason for being declined. Every application is assessed carefully and fairly, with the aim of making sure any loan we offer is affordable and responsible. We’d really like the chance to talk things through with you and see if there’s anything more we can do to help or explain. If you feel comfortable doing so, please get in touch with our team directly. Thank you again for your honest feedback – it helps us reflect and improve. Response date: 14th July 2025
