You can apply for an affordable loan today online, or contact a member of staff to get a free quote and discuss borrowing options. There are NO requirements of loan applicants already being account holders, savers or previous borrowers. There are many benefits to a PCCU loan;
- Rates between 12.7% APR and 42.6% APR on the decreasing balance – so the interest is always reducing
- Loans from £150 – £15,000
- Loan decisions by people not computers
- NO setup fees
- NO late payment penalties
- NO early settlement penalties
- By carefully assessing each applicants personal circumstance, we make loan decisions on affordability and tailor repayments to suit you
- FREE life insurance (subject to rules), so in the event of your untimely death your loan would be paid off
- Even if you already have a loan, you can still apply for a top up loan
Anyone who borrows from PCCU is expected to save into a savings account as they make loan repayments. These savings build up and act as collateral against the loan. They are fixed against the loan balance and can only be accessed once the borrower has fully repaid the loan or the loan balance is lower than the savings balance, when the borrower is allowed to take out the difference.
PCCU’s £500 Family Loan & Saving Scheme lets you borrow and use your Child Benefit for the repayments. Complete a simple loan application, with no credit check – after an affordability assessment your Family Loan can be ready in no time at all.

If you are looking for an affordable loan, with competitive interest rates and repayments especially tailored to suit your financial circumstance – look no further than a PCCU loan.
Contact UsWe endeavour to look at every application for loans at PCCU, however in circumstances where applicants have entered into a bankruptcy or an IVA (individual voluntary arrangements), or are currently in a debt management plan or DRO (Debt Relief Order) it is unlikely that we would be able to provide a loan.
If we are unable to offer an applicant a loan, they are still welcome to save at PCCU. There are a number of organisations that may be able to offer help or advice on debt if we cannot approve a loan application.
