Loan to Cover Solicitor Fees

The last loan I had to take out was to cover solicitor fees for my difficult divorce that was going through the Courts for many years. The Croydon branch went out of their way to accommodate me as they could see I was struggling with my finances and had to seek special permission to loan me sufficient funds. This took a lot of stress from my shoulders and helped me focus on managing my finances. Every colleague in the team including the manager were really supportive and showed me the utmost kindness at a very difficult period in my life. I manged to clear the loan off in full early when I sold my home. I am so grateful to them and also to Credit Union. I have continued to save the monies that I had previously used to repay the loan and savings, and did not reduce the payments. This has enabled me to be self-sufficient in paying for some unexpected bills and even holidays. I have been a member of the Credit Union/YCB for over 20 years and it has been the best thing that I have done for myself in respect for saving for a rainy day and for the various loans I have taken out over the years. The staff are excellent and offer a really good service. Reviewed on: 10th July 2026

Croydon Plus Credit Union Loans

Croydon Plus Credit Union have been so supportive in helping me with taking out loans over the years and making sensible repayment plans. The fact that I am saving at the same time is also a bonus. They have supported me when I needed financial help to pay for my Court/solicitors fees during a very long drawn out divorce. The Manager was was amazing at helping me out when I really needed the loan. I am truly grateful for his support at a very difficult time in my life. In fact the whole team provide an excellent service. Thank you. Reviewed on: 8th July 2025
