Ethical savings with a good rate and friendly service

Credit Unions are better than the big banks

I have been saving with this credit union for around sixteen years. What's good is that I know when I am saving someone else is able to borrow so I am supporting people on lower incomes than myself. I also have found that if I need my money I contact the branch and the customer service is excellent. I know my money is safe, supporting people who need it and is easy to hand if I need it. What's there not to like... Reviewed on: 2nd June 2024
