SCOTWEST Credit Union is one of the largest credit unions in the UK existing to provide ethical, competitive and fair financial services to its members. 

Like all credit unions, Scotwest exists to improve the financial lives of their members by encouraging savings, and providing fair, affordable loans and mortgages all the while circulating the money and profit within the membership.

There is no limit to how much a Scotwest member can save across the range of accounts on offer from the standard Savers Account to the Notice Accounts for longer term savers. The increasingly popular Christmas Savings Account saw Scotwest Members save over £3m for the festive period this year. Borrowing is simple and straightforward, and you don’t have to be an existing member or have savings with them before you apply.

With unsecured rates starting as low as 3.9% rep APR there are plenty of reasons to turn to Scotwest for your borrowing needs. They are also one of the few credit unions in the UK offering Fixed and Variable Rate mortgages.

Scotwest is delighted to support the The Glasgow Times Bank On Us Toy Appeal this year and recognise the important role we can play within society. In addition to being an approachable lender in our communities, the team at Scotwest can help members financially support community groups and charities, and are committed to being part of a greener future and they provide their members access to financial education and advice to help them live better financial lives
