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

There when I needed them

5
They have been a great help with life's expenses, they have helped me get a car I wanted, and pay for some of my wedding to which wouldn't have been possible if it wasn't for the quick decision and friendly call to confirm I was happy with the decision. I'm hopeful that they will continue to operate going on strength to strength in the future, now I have my first child on the way I may have to call them again in the future but I know I'll be in good hands. Thanks to all at GWCU Gary Reviewed on: 27th May 2022
