Review of the Manchester Credit Union, Loans:

A brilliant website that supports a clear and extremely helpful financial service

5
I have been a member of Manchester Credit Union since 2011. I have had a loan with them that was affordable and the repayment was easier than any other loan repayment I have experienced. The website is clear, easy to navigate, holds all necessary relevant detail for any action I require within my account. The recent addition of the Xmas Saver account option is in my opinion an outstanding benefit. I find the staff at Manchester Credit Union very helpful. I am indeed a very satisfied customer.

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
