Gods

Being a first generation immigrant, I don't have any help from family so I'm by myself. Found myself in debt and needed a debt consolidation. GWCU assured me they'd be able to help me and they helped me clear my debt with debt consolidation at a very low interest rate, even seemed to be lower than high Street banks as well (even though I had a poor credit score). Now I leave a normal life and my credit score as massively improved 700/1000 , from 400/1000 in a few months!!!! Reviewed on: 28th May 2022

Help when you really need it
