Review of the Bamboo Loans, Personal loan:

Bamboo Loans: Excellent, Efficient & Easy Loan Provider

Me and my partner had our wedding booked from last year however, after saving up we were hit with the news of expecting a baby (which comes with its additional costs). As a result we were in need of some extra cash to help pay off some things for the wedding and after a few searches and a referral I came across Bamboo Loans. The application process was really QUICK, no time wasting with a user friendly website. Within JUST a FEW MINUTES I received an approval email and CONFIRMATION asking me to log in to sign the agreement. The agreement was clearly written with the APR rate and repayment schedule etc. and was able to sign this all electronically! (No stress of having to print, sign and rescan back in... phew!) Once completed I then received a email confirming PAYOUT by 1pm the next day! It was such a stress free process and since making monthly payments I have received reminders by text and email and have also spoken with the bamboo team directly on the phone who are also very helpful offering ongoing support. I didn’t have the greatest credit when I applied but good income and history of making repayments however, they also offer a guarantor loan service for bad credit. Even better... I managed to get a NON GUARANTOR loan which was even better for me! I would certainly recommend BAMBOO Loans :) Reviewed on: 16th June 2020

Recommendation to others

I would recommend Bamboo as a lender. The reason is the whole approach towards customers, there are phone calls after applying and decision making. How genuine the decision making of the affordability is, I don't know. But the customer service is very friendly and helpful and professional. The interest is what it is, but the length is making the loan affordable and there are options for difficulties. Bamboo isn't cheap lender and I would believe that it's not exploiting the vulnerable at this hard times. I hope that Bamboo won't get busted like several in the past. Although most of the payday and private lenders which got under administration, just changed names and some other things and continue lending. However, Bamboo helped me, so thank you Bamboo.
