Manchester Credit Union Loans reviews (2163)

Help when needed most - Amazing Service

Absolutely amazing and much better value than my bank. I applied for a loan to consolidate multiple debts and I was accepted after being turned down by a bank. The application was really easy. I wasnt left waiting to hear back and everything was all discussed smoothly via email. My application was accepted and they even dealt with settling everything on my behalf. I’m grateful really for their help and other members who help make Manchester Credit Union work! Reviewed on: 23rd June 2025

Great experience

Manchester credit union are so friendly and helpful and the whole experience from start to finish applying was so easy Reviewed on: 23rd June 2025

Family Loan

I currently have a family loan. Any queries are responded to within 24 hours which is really useful. My repayments come straight from my child benefit so I don’t need to worry about repayments which takes off a lot of stress. Part of my repayment then goes into a saving account which allows me to repay what I owe but also save at the same time. They also provide a top up service when you repay so much which is very handy to have and they have now made the process even easier meaning if you have repaid a certain amount you won’t need to wait for approvals so will get payment same day which has come in handy many of times in emergencies. I have recommended to family and friends and I am very grateful to have a loan that works around me and my family! Reviewed on: 23rd June 2025

MCU is the best

I was in need of consolidating multiple loans and credit cards as my monthly repayments were extremely high. Due to having too many loans I wasn't able to reach any consolidation loans at all. After searching on the internet for many days I've stumbled upon Manchester credit union pages. I thought to myself - it can't hurt to try and apply with them,.maybe they will be able to help me. I've applied and got my consolidation loan sorted within 5 days. My advisor was lady called Zatoon she is an absolute asset to MCU as all of their members are. The APR is amazing, my finances are sorted now and I don't have to live in permanent stress about finances. MCU saved my life - literally! Reviewed on: 23rd June 2025
