Low credit score? No problem!

5
When other loan companies said no, they said yes with no unfair refusals. I knew I could easily afford to repay the loan, and that was made simpler by linking my account to my workplace pay slip. Sheffield credit union have been a huge help when I needed financial support. A simple application process and my money was made available within days. I recommend them to anyone!

Credit union has helped me gain control of my finances completely. I am able to save weekly which I have never been able to previously. All the staff are very helpful and respond quickly to emails. The website is simple and easy to navigate. Their loan process is brilliant and offer affordable payments. Sheffield credit union has got me on the right track to managing my money and helped me out in desperation when I have needed a loan. Been part of Sheffield credit union feels like been part of a family almost. I could not recommend Sheffield credit union enough. Thank you so much once again! Reviewed on: 15th June 2022

We were former Rothersave Credit Union Members.

5
My wife had worked for Rothersave Credit Union and I had been a board member. We moved to live in Tenerife, but continue to be online members of Sheffield Credit Union. We are savers with the hope of helping others understand the benefits of saving with a Credit Union. Our online involvment runs smoothly and if we need to talk to anyone in Sheffield we have always received polite and helpful support. Reviewed on: 15th June 2022

Friendly and helpful with your finances

5
I use the credit union to save for a rainy day, and every time I have to deal with the staff they're always friendly and helpful, and that matters a lot to me. Unlike a bank, where the staff seem to be forced to follow a script, being a member of Sheffield Credit Union feels a bit like being in a big extended family. Reviewed on: 15th June 2022
