I needed to pay off a high interest loan and thought I'd apply with Great Western Credit Union. I was accepted and received the money 3 days later. I paid off my high interest debt and had a fixed low interest loan instead. I have now paid off my loan from them and can assure you everything went smoothly. I would highly recommend them.
