Bamboo Loans: Excellent, Efficient & Easy Loan Provider

5
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

Good easy process to a quick loan

After wanting to consolidate some debts I came across bamboo on my clearscore app, for the amount I wanted to borrow over the duration I felt I could afford, bamboo were very competitive with the loan repayments. The application process was simple followed by a relatively immediate response in acceptance. All the credit agreement and usual documentation was clear and easy to understand along with the amounts due on whatever day of the month I could choose to repay, making it easier for me to set this around other bills of the month and not have them all fall into the same week. Overall it has been an easy business experience with more than enough communication from bamboo with reminders by text message that payment will be due on certain days giving me chance to calculate my finances and move money around. I have, and will continue to recommend bamboo to friends who find themselves in need of a little helpa Reviewed on: 18th July 2022
