Helping People for Financial needs

Good people and worth to loan, as interest is not too high and worth it Reviewed on: 2nd July 2025

Simple and easy to do.

Was easy to set up and when I had issues I messaged on thier site and got a quick response that answered my questions. Simple to use the site and having the convenience to withdraw money as and when you needed it was great. Reviewed on: 2nd July 2025

Effortless Saving? This Is a Game-Changer!

I can’t overstate how amazing this experience has been! My savings are automatically deducted straight from my payroll, and I don’t even have to lift a finger. No manual transfers, no second-guessing—just pure, seamless saving in the background while I focus on life. What used to take discipline and planning now happens like magic. It's not just convenient—it’s transformative. Watching my savings grow without the daily stress or effort is beyond satisfying. This is not just a feature, it’s a financial revolution! If you're looking for a way to save smart, effortlessly, and consistently—this is it. Truly a life-changing experience! Reviewed on: 2nd July 2025

Makes saving easy

So easy to save through payroll and good rates of interest. I was encouraged to start saving with the "Stop loan sharks" incentive and keep saving monthly. It means I can afford a short get away with friends every year and I don't have to worry about paying for it, because I don't notice the small amount that goes out from my pay every month. Thank you GWCU. Reviewed on: 2nd July 2025

A great product, would highly recommend

We had a webinar with someone from Great Western Credit Union at work to tell us all about their products and I attended as I wanted to hear more about their savings product. It was very well explained and the product is great. 7% interest easy access which beats any easy access on the market at the moment and its super convenient to just have the money taken out of my salary before I get it into my bank. I'm almost saving without realising it! Reviewed on: 2nd July 2025
