    1 dividend bonus after a few years for having a savings account. Not really worth it. And then the loans are not interest free with ridiculous repayments

I was struggling and worrying about where I would afford to pay my home renovations following the purchase of my first home. I looked into Credit Union who I was a member of and decided to request a loan, I was asked to submit documents and answer some questions and had a quick response after a few days that I had been accepted for the loan and the money came to my bank account straight away. I was so happy that I started the work on the property the following day and my worries were over. Thank you so much to Bradford credit union to help me achieve my goal and start work on my house quickly so I can move in sooner. Read more Read less

    BDCU is a life saver

I have run a gardening business for 26 years....and I needed another car about 3 years ago. No other lender wld look at me...except to offer impossible packages. Bradford credit union loaned me the £3,000 I needed. I'm an older woman on my own. As a social scientist for over 20 years, I wonder about both age and gender discrimination. Thank you BDCU....because of you I can keep working...and I need to with only a state pension for income. Read more Read less
