I have been with MCU for years and as a single mum with a very bad credit rate, I never dreamed to get a loan anywhere. Manchester Credit Union offered me a Family Loan of £500 and I can always top up on my loan after paying back £200. They take their payments out of my Child benefit payments, put me some money in my Share 1 Account and save a £1 in my Share 2 Account which they say you can't withdraw from if you are owing on the loan repayments but every time I find myself in a financial difficulty they give me some of the money kept in my Share 2 account with no questions asked. I'm very thankful for their impeccable Customer Service and how they go the extra mile to listen and help out. I don't know what I would have done over the last few years of being unemployed if I didn't have them to lean on whenever I need some money for bills or even just to get the children some Christmas presents. Thanks to MCU I never have to feel like an all around failure in front of my children, or go without gas and electricity in the home. Thank you MCU and keep shining that light for those of us in the dark. Reviewed on: 18th May 2022
