When I went to the then Bristol Credit Union I was not a member and was not expecting to be given a loan. To my surprise it took me minutes to get a loan. I needed the money to pay my son’s university fees…. I was desperate. I will forever be grateful to the Bristol credit union. Reviewed on: 22nd June 2022
