Simple, friendly, customer focused

I received a warm welcome when I visited the Bristol branch. They are so helpful. This credit union provided interest free loan for NHS front line workers for the appreciation of their great job in the pandemic situation. We are the benefactors of this unique service. Thanks Reviewed on: 24th June 2021

Best little (big!) Credit Union in the West!

Professional but friendly and helpful staff. Flexible terms for when things are tough, couldn't recommend Great Western Credit Union enough! Reviewed on: 23rd June 2021

Down to earth approach with geniune care for the community

The office branch of Great Western Credit is just by my doorstep. It looks approachable and professional. I have recently applied loan from them without going into the office and the process is also swift and easy. Communities really need credit unions like this to financially support strengthen the vulnerable groups. Reviewed on: 23rd June 2021
