The best credit union in the South West

Very Friendly

Great credit union I use them to put a little aside for rainy days. Very friendly when I've had the odd query. Reviewed on: 24th June 2022

Always helpful

I have found this bank to always be helpful and understanding with regards to everyday living for people like myself, who hasn't thousands of pounds in savings put away. On the odd occasion in the past when I've needed an everyday loan of £300 or, a loan so I can pay a month's rent & deposit upfront, they have always come to my rescue. The staff are always polite and helpful aswell, so yes!!...they get my vote. Reviewed on: 24th June 2022

Good customer service with better percentage of reasonable loan. Reviewed on: 23rd June 2022

People not numbers

I like to work with GWCU because they treat us as a client not like other lenders that don't care about nothing. Amazing costumer service. 5 stars service. Reviewed on: 23rd June 2022
