I recently used Manchester Credit Union’s loan service and had a really positive experience. The application process was clear and straightforward, and the team kept me updated at every stage. The staff were friendly, supportive, and always happy to answer my questions, which made everything feel much less stressful. The loan was approved quickly, and the repayment terms are fair and affordable compared to high street lenders. I really appreciate how Manchester Credit Union focuses on helping local people rather than just making a profit. I would highly recommend their loan service to anyone looking for a safe, reliable, and community-focused alternative. Reviewed on: 16th September 2025
