I cannot recommend the NHS Credit Union…

I cannot recommend the NHS Credit Union highly enough. I recently reached out for help consolidating my debts after a very difficult year, and the support I received was exceptional.

Paula, in particular, was outstanding — patient, compassionate, and incredibly reassuring. At no point did I feel judged or like a burden. She took the time to explain everything clearly and made a very stressful situation feel manageable.

Thanks to her support, I now have one affordable monthly payment and real peace of mind for the first time in a long while. Dealing with real people who genuinely care makes all the difference.

I’ll never go back to high-street lenders and will continue recommending the credit union to colleagues without hesitation.

Big weight off my shoulders

Helped me out of a rubbish situation and now my debt is consolidated into one simple payment. Thank you. Took a bit longer over Xmas and New Year but all easy to discuss over NIVO app

Borrowing for home improvements

Made borrowing money for home renovations so easy. Everyone is so helpful in getting you the best deal. Quick to respond via the app and loan approved really quickly as is the money in your account. I wouldn’t borrow anywhere else.

Bad service do not use if u want to save

I have been a member for years and for the last 3 weeks I have been unable to speak to someone to withdraw my own money . I cancelled my membership and was told I would get my money in my account right away away and still not in my account 24 hours later . Unhappy that it is so difficult to get ur own savings would not recommend

Defo join the credit union

I have been a member for many years and with the introduction of full online paperwork the processes are much quicker. It’s a great way to save and another option if you wish to borrow as the interest rates are better

Debt Consolidation

I have only been a member for one year and the help I have received has been amazing, I applied for a christmas loan and it was brought to my attention that they could offer me something better in order to save me I was able to consolidate existing loans, credit cards etc and this so close to Christmas has taken such a weight off , cannot thank Natalie enough for her professionalism throughout the whole process and for looking into my situation and showing me that other better long term options were available to me
