I had an absolutely fantastic experience with South Manchester Credit Union. From the moment I applied for a loan, their customer service was nothing short of exceptional. The team was friendly, professional, and incredibly supportive throughout the entire process. They took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure I felt confident and informed every step of the way. The process was smooth, efficient, and tailored to my needs, and I felt valued as a customer, not just another number. I’m truly grateful for the support I received and would highly recommend South Manchester Credit Union to anyone looking for fair, responsible, and people-centered financial services. They go above and beyond! Read more Read less

Smcu has helped me so much in so many different ways, from helping navigate the death of a loved one, to helping get my disabled puppy get life saving treatment. There's always someone genuine, a real person who actually cares, on the other end of the line. Saying they do amazing work doesn't even come close to giving them the credit (pun very intended) they deserve. Read more Read less
