The whole process was quick and easy. From my initial enquiry about a loan to the money going into my account, it was a seamless process.
I have been saving with Serve and Protect for a long time now and I cannot fault the service. I have taken out a loan and had the money in my account within 24 hours. Cannot recommend this company enough.
Serve and Protect Credit Union responded quickly to my application for a loan. There was no judgment that I needed the money for a hot tub, either. I have fibromyalgia, which is why I need one. They couldn’t lend me the full amount, but this showed me that they are responsible lenders.
Brilliant service, and a nice, quick process! A lot of stress has been relieved knowing my debts are sorted and I’m clearing this via my salary!
I would definitely recommend Serve and Protect. Very quick response time and super friendly staff to support you through your application.
I have been a member of Serve and Protect for a number of years and I have always found it an excellent way to save money, and when I needed them they were there for me.
Every transaction with Serve and Protect Credit Union is seamless. They make sure I am up to date with every step of the process and I’d recommend them to anyone. If it wasn’t for them I wouldn’t have been able to save the money for a deposit for our home. I got used to saving a certain amount from my salary each month as it was deducted at source. They helped me make a home for my family and I’ll always be grateful.
Brilliant service. Genuine people who want to help you in tough times. Couldn’t have been better. Got approved for a loan even though I have only worked in the job for three months.
The staff are lovely, always helpful, and very patient, I always manage to tie myself in knots but they always get me knotted, a very big thank you from me.
Great service from start to finish. Applied for a personal loan, and the staff looked at my request as an individual and not just what the screen said. They made sure the personal loan was suitable for me and realistic. Great communication back and forth throughout the process.
Serve and Protect have helped me and my family out so much. Because of the credit union, I can now re-mortgage and get a cheaper deal.
