Overall, Glasgow Credit Union is a solid choice!

5
I've been a member of Glasgow Credit Union for several years, and overall, my experience has been very positive. One of the standout benefits is their competitive loan rates, which are often lower than those offered by traditional banks. The application process is straightforward, and decisions are usually made quickly. I also appreciate their focus on responsible lending—it's clear they prioritise financial wellbeing over profit. Their online banking platform is easy to use, with features like secure messaging, loan calculators, and account management tools. I’ve found the customer service team to be friendly and responsive whenever I’ve had a query, which adds a personal touch you don’t always get with larger institutions. That said, there are a few areas for improvement. Their mobile app, while functional, can occasionally feel a bit outdated and limited compared to those of larger banks. Overall, Glasgow Credit Union is a solid choice, especially if you value ethical banking, competitive loans, and a community-focused approach. Reviewed on: 1st May 2025
