Review of the Great Western Credit Union, Loans:

I joined GWCU today and very happy to be a member!

I joined GWCU today through a loan application and very happy to be a member. Credit Unions are for everyone and it's long been my preferred way to borrow money. It was easy to apply and all of the information about the loan, the term, the repayments and how it works was super easy to understand. Reviewed on: 3rd December 2024
