Review of the Manchester Credit Union, Savings:

Savings Account for rainy days

I have beem with Manchester Credit Union for about 6 years. I save a small amount each month and it gives me a lot of peace of mind. I can see my savings grow online, I feel rest assured that if I need to use my savings I can withdraw them without any hassle and know that if I needed extra money I could apply for a credit union loan. Their website is simple to use and provides all the information I need. As an extra bonus every saver is provided with generous life insurance. The life insurance doubles your savings deposits in case of your death to help love ones pay for funeral expenses. Reviewed on: 18th May 2022

Long standing satisfied customer

I have been a customer for many years and have always found them to be fair and efficient and a life line for me on more than one occasion I have had loans and have also been able to save a little as well loans are affordable and helped when I needed them Reviewed on: 13th May 2026

Ethical banking that supports communities

I’ve had a great experience with Manchester Credit Union. The service is reliable, and their app makes managing savings and loans surprisingly straightforward. More importantly, I highly encourage others to join. Unlike big banks, they are member-owned co-ops, meaning profits stay in the community rather than going to shareholders. It’s an ethical, local alternative for anyone looking to build financial resilience while supporting Greater Manchester. Definitely worth making the switch! Reviewed on: 13th May 2026
