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

Glasgow Credit Union Savings reviews (3844)

Friendly and Efficient

I’ve been with Glasgow Credit Union for about 20 years and in the past have used them for both savings and loans. As a retired person I find the Credit Union still a great way to save for both home improvements and holidays. Staff are friendly, efficient and very helpful. A great service Reviewed on: 9th July 2020

Excellent Company

This company is so easy to deal with , going online makes it so much easier to do my business and having my money directly taken from my wages makes it less noticeable . The rate of interest on loans is great too Reviewed on: 9th July 2020

Lifeline with a smile

Over the years I have been a member the credit union has helped me with loans and advise on monitory issues, this assistance was delivered with professionalism and understanding. Reviewed on: 9th July 2020

Savings made easy and informative

Having lived in the area to use the credit union I was amazed at how good and simple it was to gain access. Now with the app version of the site being available it’s been perfect for me to check all my accounts. Reviewed on: 9th July 2020

Great Community Asset

I've been a member of the GCU for over 10 years and I've saved and borrowed a number of times. The products are competitive, the staff are friendly and they really help the community. Reviewed on: 9th July 2020

Very Friendly service

The customer service is amazing with friendly voices always available to help in any related circumstances. Reviewed on: 9th July 2020

Ethically based, non-profit organisation

I have been a member of Glasgow Credit Union for almost 30 years, initially as a Glasgow District Council employee member (as it was initially an employee only organisation) but maintained my account when I changed employer in 2005. I am fortunate enough that I no longer need to borrow money from the credit union but continue to save with them as I believe in the ethos of Glasgow Credit Unions i.e. "to improve our community through financial empowerment and education" and I am delighted that it is so professionally run and I feel secure in the knowledge that my savings are safe but being used to benefit others. Reviewed on: 9th July 2020

Efficient Professional and extremely helpful

Been member since 1993 and used all aspects of their services they go the extra mile to help their members and as a member you feel valued Reviewed on: 9th July 2020

Glasgow Credit Union is the best

I started banking with GCU when I started work with the council and the money comes out of my pay and straight into my account, I'm saving money without even thinking about it. It's wonderful. Reviewed on: 9th July 2020

Your First Financial Friend

A friendly team who are always offering some great advice and encouragement with anything financial. I've been a member for over 15 years and would encourage anyone to open an account with them. Reviewed on: 9th July 2020
