Fast and efficient, affordable loans

I have been a member with South Manchester credit union for over 10 years and have had a few small loans in the past which have been a a good rate. I have always been treated respectfully and politely and SMCU has been prompt on providing details and outcomes of decisions for loans. I have recently needed to apply for a more substantial loan as my credit cards were costing so much in interest and a few unforeseen bills such as car repairs and white goods needing replacing meant I would be paying extortionate APR on other types of credit. SMCU have been very helpful and understanding in my predicament and thanks to the loan at a good interest rate I am still able to save alongside my repayments . Reviewed on: 23rd June 2025
