Amazing union

5
This union is amazing! I joined and everything was easy to read and the website is good. I entered my details with no problems. I applied for a loan and they helped me straight away! They were helpful and efficient. I’ve already paid my first payment back and will continue doing so. The money went in with no problem and quickly. Low interest too and I can’t thank Bristol Credit Union enough for helping me. I couldn’t rate them higher and I would definitely recommend them to family and friends. Very happy with my experience.

Everything is easy...

When I call, staff are always friendly and polite and this is also the case when I go into the branch. I like the fact that it’s community banking and I feel a sense of belonging by being with Bristol Credit Union. Reviewed on: 9th July 2020

Recommend Bristol Credit Union

First time I went was when I needed a deposit and first months rent for my flat and then I’ve been a few more times for loans and I’ve now also got the family finance plan! I love credit union it’s so easy to apply for I would like it if they could do online signing of documents as it would be easier if you can’t get to the branch Reviewed on: 9th July 2020
