Testimonials

What our members say

My name is Nesbah, and my husband is Kenneth. We have both been with the credit union for years.

The credit union has been of great help to our family. We both started saving when we were working, but at some point, my husband lost his job when I gave birth to our son. I was on maternity leave, things were so complex, and we had outstanding loans. The credit union agreed with us to devise a payment plan until the loan was paid off.

I will advise anyone to save through the credit union because they can lend you money even on a small income if you can make the monthly repayment. Thank you very much for everything. With your help, we have achieved much. We are very grateful, and we will always be.”

Nesbah

Both My Husband and I save with the credit union. We both use online banking and find this very valuable. We only learned about SCVO at our workplace. It is so convenient, as our savings come straight from our wages and are sent to SCVO from our Employer.

Both of us have had a loan from SCVO, and the interest rates make it so easy for you to pay it off quickly and easily. My only complaint is that I wish I had known about it years before I did.”

Mary

The credit union has supported me for 16 years, helping with various holidays from Cornwall to New Zealand. They have helped my family through tough times and lots of good times. Thank you for all you do.”

Linda

I have appreciated the support from this Credit Union over the years I have been a member. I know I will probably rely on your support in the future. Take care."

Margaret Ann

This is just a note to thank you and your team for assessing my application so quickly while I was working remotely. I appreciate it. I never thought I would get the loan in my account this quickly, so it is a massive help for the Christmas madness. Thank you.”

Farah

Thanks for all your help with my loan. You made my experience pain-free and easy, it was a pleasure. Thanks again.”

Carol

"Payroll deduction has made saving easy, giving me access to low-cost loans and a convenient way to build my savings. The staff at the Credit Union have been accommodating and understanding, making the whole process smooth and stress-free. I feel more in control of my financial future."
