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.

Didn’t have great credit rating as a single mum. These guys helped with a couple of loans and eventually to save. Easy to use and helps within the community. Reviewed on: 18th May 2022

Very happy to have learned about mcu. Its been so helpful in times of need. Being able to save in an easy but secure way is great! You can use the app to manage your repayments and savings too! The repayments are manageable and the staff are always helpful and friendly! We had an unexpected funeral to pay for around Christmas time and we have children and we was told about mcu and the loan really did help us... then we carried on using mcu since and have been saving too! Thankyou mcu Reviewed on: 18th May 2022
