Banking for real people.

I’ve had a Credit Union account for a number of years. I think its a fabulous service for working class people and people on low incomes. You can pay in small amounts which build up. You can also apply for loans at exceptionally reasonable rates. I would recommend Credit Union to everybody. Reviewed on: 20th May 2022
