Review of the Sheffield Credit Union, Loans:

SCU savings loans and budgeting accounts are the best

5
Quick application quick responses and decisions and very quick payout of loans. Great service with fantastic rates and repayments.Very friendly helpful staff always willing to help if they can and the only place I go for loans and said ings and budgeting account is fantastic as it gives peace of mind that bills are paid on time with money put to one side every week for bills and rest sent to you to cover normal living expenses savings etc. Great peace of mind and the last 12 years have been so easy and relaxing knowing I dont have to worry about remembering to pay my regular bills and not worrying about having to trawl through loads of companies to find good rates and quick easy application and good low repayments. I go to SCU for all my financial needs first and usually get the help I need as quick as they can get it sorted. 100%recommend them all the time for savings and loans etc Reviewed on: 19th May 2025

Sheffield Credit Union are amazing!

5
Sheffield Credit Union is an amazing community-focused financial cooperative that provided me with a supportive and affordable loan when I needed it most. Their service was friendly, professional, and genuinely caring—far from what you'd expect from high street lenders. They made the process easy, transparent, and stress-free, showing a real commitment to helping local people manage their money responsibly. I'm truly grateful for the support and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for ethical, reliable financial help. Reviewed on: 13th July 2025
