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

Great organisation

5
I have been with GCU for over 20 years. In all that time they have shown great customer service and support. They are quick and efficient to deal with and I am confident they provide great savings and loan advice. A great service and organisation. Reviewed on: 9th August 2021

30 years with GCU

5
Have been a saver for 30 years and had a number of loans over this period. Have been retired for 4 years but still saving on monthly basis. Left my employment with Glasgow City to take up employment with another council in mid 90s but continued to save. I didn’t and still don’t miss the funds being deducted from my bank account and the loans over the years have enabled me to get a loft conversion, fund cars, pay for doors and windows for my house and pay for summer holidays when my family were young children. I believe in the value base and ethics of GCU and over the years have seen the service go from strength to strength. Reviewed on: 9th August 2021
