The Credit Union has been my Lifeline.

The Credit Union has been my Lifeline. I have been with this Credit Union for approximately 10 years. Primarily it’s for savings as back up when income low. I have used for a small loan many years ago. I have always received good friendly efficient service ( though prefer f2f) online and when originally face to face customer service. I recommend to other people particularly when working with people on low incomes and mention the small loans option so they don’t go to iffy lenders / payday loans etc. Reviewed on: 4th July 2025
