Glasgow Credit Union Savings reviews (3842)

Savings

5
I have always thought that saving a minimum amount of money from your monthly income pays dividends in the long run. After you have decided what you can afford to save stick with it and after a short time you don't miss it . Unless we save we cant borrow. Reviewed on: 9th August 2021

Community, Competitive Interest Rate, and Fairness

5
Glasgow Credit Union is more than a credit union in the sense that it engages its members to be really involved and create the sense of community whereby you can really see that it works for the interest of its of membership. Aside from being part of community, Glasgow Credit Union offeres competitive interest rate on its Savings product and the transparency and fairness by both Management and the Board each year on dividend payout is something that I truly appreciate. I'm very happy and proud as member of Glasgow Credit Union! Reviewed on: 9th August 2021

Fantastic knowledgeable staff

5
Very smooth operation with great staff. I get my savings out using online service and over the phone and it's always a smooth no fuss service. I don't use the bank for my saving I use GCU. Reviewed on: 9th August 2021

Looks out for Savers

In a time where benefitting from having some savings delivers little or no return, GCU consistently provide a dividend/interest that more than competes with the banking giants. Reviewed on: 9th August 2021

No Brainer

5
Get your money working in the Credit Union. 33 years later loans and savings have opened up opportunities for the family whilst safely investing and paying a more than competitive interest rate. Daughter joined saving for house and son a student knows a deal when he sees it. The Credit Union App does it all and you are in complete control 24/7. Reviewed on: 9th August 2021

Great way to save

5
Set up a direct debit to take the money straight from my account when i’ve been paid, easy and no hassle. Easy to withdraw money when needed and easy to put money into savings if needed. Reviewed on: 9th August 2021

Great way to save.

Have used GCU for many years now. Find it an easy way to save as money taken from my pay. Being able to manage my account online is ideal too. Reviewed on: 9th August 2021
