I have nothing but praise for the guys who work here. Dispite me being very dear and unable to hear on mobiles or telephones they have been very helpful with clear guideance and communication via email. They even have put up with my impaitentness as the best of times and still willing to help. They deserve to win and long may we continue to have good relationship together. Well done to the whole team. Reviewed on: 24th August 2022

Trustworthy

When you need to borrow money but the only ones who will offer you anything are payday loans with the most ridiculous apr rate that your paying back double. Credit union will only offer what you can afford and promote you to save and no ridiculous apr. I’ve been using this credit union for a few years now and it’s help me through Christmas/ replacement of white goods. Family holiday. I couldn’t of achieve this with out the help to borrow from them. Great cried union would highly recommend to anyone Reviewed on: 19th August 2022
