Credit Unions are good for normal day to day stuff. They want us to treat them like a normal bank and do usual day to day transactions through them. That's fine and it usually works ok. But ask to something a bit out of the ordinary, in my case, process a payment from the UK and you are banging your head off a brick wall. So inflexible and no communication
I went to their Cork branch to apply for a loan and they asked me to open an account and put at least €500 in that account, but they rejected my application even though I waited for days. I realised that this is their customer acquisition tactic! I have been working for 2 years in the same company, above the minimum wage and I have no income problems, yet they rejected my application for a loan of €3000, whereas this branch has accepted the applications of more than 2 people with an income of €1000 - €1200. If you don't want to be deceived or victimised, stay away from this company
