I feel very peaceful with my savings at Boom. I feel very peaceful with my savings at Boom. Worthwhile and caring. They should teach the big conglomerates how to bank with compassion. Yay! Reviewed on: 6th July 2025

Brilliant

Very efficient. Offered brilliant advice when I was looking at renting my first home, and helped me open my first boom account to help me save. Reviewed on: 30th July 2021

Helped me through loans and savings

I've been saving with Boom for years now. I initially got a loan out and paid it back and since then have kept saving regularly into my account. Their online services are easy and straightforward to use and their staff are friendly and attentive. Reviewed on: 30th July 2021

Ease and ethics of service

Boom has been a pleasure to use since the start. uncomplicated deposit and withdrawal processes. Consistently good prompt customer service for all needs. Ethically, there is no better way of ensuring your money is used for local interest. I am very happy with my decision to bank with boom. Reviewed on: 30th July 2021

Simplicity itself

I can't describe how worry free it's been saving with Boom, and if I need financial help in the future I know they're there and that I have a reputation with them. When I've needed assistance, they've been responsive and I've only had to do that very few times. Reviewed on: 30th July 2021

Great local credit union

I have found Boom CU to be a great way to save. Everything I need is online but the team are friendly and happy to help when needed. I like that I’m able to put a bit away each month and also help the community Reviewed on: 30th July 2021

Very very good

Nice to deal with very friendly Reviewed on: 30th July 2021

Rainy day funds

As a child I grew up with mum saving in the credit union. So when I had the opportunity to save with Boom I was super excited to do so especially as I work for the NHS and I am able to participate in the save as you earn scheme. Save as you earn allows you to set aside some savings before your wages are at your disposal. I find this really reassuring to know that I have a regular amount of money put aside each month. This was very helpful for us as a family to fall back on when I was on maternity. Thank you Boom Reviewed on: 30th July 2021

Nest Egg and Backup all in one!

Been squirreling away a few pounds each month here, not only has it built up i also feel very confident that if I ever need a bit of back up with a purchase then I would be in the right place. Reviewed on: 30th July 2021

Saving to help others made easy

I am proud to be a founder member of Boom (formerly the Surrey Credit Union). Their staff have always made it very easy for me to add to my savings and answered my questions personally, quickly and clearly. They most certainly deserve an award. Reviewed on: 30th July 2021

A win-win!

A great way of giving back to the community while saving securely. Catherine and Abigail always provide great customer service and I always have trouble-free access to my account. Reviewed on: 30th July 2021
