Could never save before joining the Glasgow Credit Union, but since being recommended their salary sacrifice service from colleagues when I started my job, I’ve saved more than I ever thought I could in two years. It’s made me feel really proud of myself and realise financial goals are within reach- something I wouldn’t have thought before. So grateful I took my colleagues advice and joined when I did.

I was never very good at saving, always dipping in, until I joined GCU. From the start, I saved an amount each month and even when I took a loan, I still continued to save alongside it. Now I have become a regular saver, and can see the growth. My Thanx to Glasgow Credit Union, I recommend it to anyone I know who has trouble managing their finances. Reviewed on: 10th August 2021
