Why choose The Police Credit Union for your Auto Loan?
What our members are saying
"Nelly was a pleasure to work with for are personal loan and vehicle loan. Nelly went above and beyond making sure we received the best rate possible and made the process extremely easy to go through. With my crazy schedule working in law enforcement and my husbands schedule working at the hospital, Nelly stayed respectful and flexible with our time and even stayed late to make sure we could get everything done. It’s employees like this, that work for The Police Credit Union, is why my husband and I are members. We will definitely be staying as members and will continue to utilize The Police Credit Union services, knowing we can deal with educated, respectable employees. Thank you!"
"I bought two cars and needed two car loans within about a month’s time. James at the San Bruno branch helped me finance both cars without any hassle. The process with James was so smooth and easy. James is also very friendly and professional. The credit union’s car loan rates were also very low and competitive. I (and my whole family) only have accounts with the SF Police credit union. I don’t trust other banks and have closed their accounts a long time ago. Thank you for your credit union! Please continue the excellent job!"
