I like that I can speak to a person I feel their customer service is very good, speaking to a person is key for me as opposed to a tick box Reviewed on: 28th January 2026

Review of the Glasgow Credit Union, Savings:

Quick, personal response

Always has been fast to get back to me and helpful if I have any problems Reviewed on: 9th August 2021

A safe lifelong financial resource

5
I joined when the Glasgow Credit Union was in its infancy in 1989. I have used it mainly for saving, getting out money for holidays and a car. I had colleagues who used the loan facility more. We could always rely on a friendly yet professional answer on the telephone and you got dividends at the end of each year and you could win a car in the lottery! Both the dividends and the lottery prizes have sadly reduced over the years but the friendly and professional service from the staff have remained. Reviewed on: 11th August 2021

I have been saving with GCU for 25 years. I have not only saved but from time to time had loans as well. What I like is everything can be done on line and is very easy with an e celle t website, easy to follow and understand. When I've had to contact by phone or even call into the offices I have received an excellent customer experience with good advice, help and friendliness. I wouldn't think twicw about lifting the phone to call them. I also appreciate the regular updates on what's happening and like the various ad hoc competitions etc. I am very comfortable saving with GCU. Reviewed on: 11th August 2021
