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

I love what the credit union stands for and knowing my savings are helping community causes

4
I joined the Credit Union because of what it stands for and the way it funds local causes, projects and groups. GCU communicates with members a lot and provides updates on how everyone is contributing to these causes, which is nice in these times when having money sitting in a bank account makes almost no impact in terms of interest anyway, to at least know this way it's doing good. They also have some good initiatives to encourage people to join their board, as well as women's networking, the app, and lots of informative articles on the website. Reviewed on: 10th August 2021

GCU is superb!

5
My life changed when I started saving with GCU. Having an increasing nest egg to fall back on gives great security. GCU is amazingly user-friendly. Everything is done very efficiently online and on the few occasions I’ve spoken to a staff member they have been wonderful. I tell everyone I know to save with GCU! Reviewed on: 10th August 2021

Top Notch for Savings

5
Proud to be a member of Glasgow Credit Union and put what little I have into their savings account. Reviewed on: 10th August 2021

Local and friendly

5
I've been saving with the credit union for years now. It's so easy to save regularly, and because it's not part of my online banking I tend not to dip into my savings too often. Though when I do need cash it's quick and easy to withdraw. I've also had a number of loans over the years. Again these are easy to pay off and I can still put money into the savings account at the same time. Reviewed on: 10th August 2021

Hassle free

Processing transactions online is so quick and easy. Would highly recommend GCU. Reviewed on: 10th August 2021
