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

Fantastic customer service

Fast and fair

Applied through the website, the process and payout was lightning fast and the whole experience from start to finish has been so easy. Regular contact and an up to date record of my payments and balance. Couldn't be happier with the whole experience. Plus there's no annoying emails asking if I want to 'top up' my loan. I borrowed what I can afford and I'll pay it back on time. Happy days Reviewed on: 23rd June 2022

Quick and simple

I applied for a loan after being turned down from a previous lender. The whole process from applying to receiving the money into my bank account was very simple to follow, every thing was easy to understand and no hidden clauses. everything was upfront for you to consider before accepting your loan. Top marks Bamboo. Reviewed on: 23rd June 2022
