Review of the The Money Co-op (Formerly The Co-op Credit Union), Loans:

Marriage Made in Heaven? Absolutely!

5
When you find yourself in a less than smiley situation out of the blue and knowing that The Money Coop have your back - no questions asked - it's a breath of fresh air. Having loans available that link to your savings - both securing your now and your future is a sigh of relief. Being able to see your loan amount come down but your savings continue to grow - protecting that sunshinier future is like watching a two horse race. Once the shock of why you need the loan has disappeared into low interest rates - it's actually quite fun watching it via their dedicated site. Having The Money Coop on my side is, I imagine, how it feels to be in a safe and secure marriage - I may be forever a committed singleton but I know there is advice, guidance and support there if needed - makes navigating life a little less scary at times.

Quick, easy and helpful.

The whole application process was really quick and easy to use. Their communication throughout the process was excellent keeping me informed every step of the way. And once the account was opened they answered a query I had really quickly, send email reminders when payments are coming up. The app is really easy to use too. Reviewed on: 14th May 2025
