I have used my Credit Union for a loan to buy a car to enable me to work. I have disabilities so this was a necessity for being able to do my job. I also use my Credit Union to save up but being safe in the knowledge that can access my savings easily if I need it. The staff have always been quick and efficient in transferring payments. Thank you! Reviewed on: 18th May 2022
