Great staff and services.

I am very grateful for all of the help and advice I have received from Bristol Credit Union, fantastic community service with opportunity's for not only support and advice but great competitions etc. Customer services are excellent, very fast communications and staff have always been very helpful and friendly.

Social financing at its best!

BCU does what it says on the can - providing finance to those the high street banks won’t lend too. Making cheaper finance available to those that may be vulnerable to doorstep lenders, thereby minimising financial stress from those already struggling. Driven by social well-being rather than profit. Reviewed on: 11th June 2020

Break away from the big banks

I joined Bristol Credit Union so that I could use Bristol Pounds to support the local economy and be more ethical in my shopping choices. I think Bristol Credit Union is great and I hope it continues to grow to support the local economy and community. Reviewed on: 11th June 2020
