Review of the London Capital Credit Union, Savings:

Great Service

Giving people a second chance

5
When I was struggling with low income and dealing with depression, it was incredibly difficult to see a way forward. But your team not only treated me with compassion and respect, you also gave me the opportunity to access a loan when I needed it most. Your willingness to help someone in a vulnerable position truly made a difference. That financial support gave me the breathing room I needed to start getting back on my feet, and I’m deeply thankful for your trust and assistance. I won’t forget the role you played in helping me through a dark time, and I hope more people in difficult situations can find the same support and dignity that I experienced with your company.

The best credit union on the market for nhs employees

The best credit union on the market that helps employees over the boroughs they are managing and NHS Organisations. We are really happy to have them on board at NLFT. Since I joined their savings schemes I managed to save loads of monies as well as taking low interest loans. Life saving!! Reviewed on: 12th June 2025

Would Not Recommend

I applied for a loan from London Capital Credit Union in good faith. I submitted all required documents – including my passport, BRP, payslips, and proof of address. After waiting patiently for over two weeks, I received a phone call confirming that my loan had been approved and I would receive the funds the next day. Based on that confirmation, I paid the deposit, signed the loan agreement, submitted my bank details, and prepared for the Direct Debit to start. I had become a member specifically because I was looking for financial help with some debt and a loan to cover my accommodation deposit. However, just hours before the funds were expected, I received a text message saying the loan had been declined — without proper explanation or accountability. No one informed me in advance. I was left in shock, with no funds, a missed Direct Debit, and serious damage to my credit. I filed a formal complaint, and as of now I’m still waiting for a meaningful response. The emotional distress, financial impact, and total lack of care shown have been appalling. Would not recommend based on my experience — especially to anyone hoping for a thoughtful or responsive service. This is not a place for people in genuine need. I plan to escalate this complaint to the Financial Ombudsman, and I am now considering further action, including legal steps through the High Court if necessary. This organisation has proven to be absolutely incompetent and a complete waste of time. Reviewed on: 12th June 2025

Great experience

This is my first loan with LCCU and I did not have any difficulty in applying for a loan. I also contacted customer services and they were very helpful. I am still waiting to be entered into the prize draw! Reviewed on: 12th June 2025
