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

Excellent fast efficient service. I have had two previous loans from Bamboo and didn’t hesitate to choose Bamboo for my recent loan Reviewed on: 23rd February 2022

Easy, value and convenient

Bamboo provided me with a £10k consolation loan, which instantly reduced my monthly outgoings by £400. Subsequently, my credit score has increased so significantly that I was able to take an alternative lower interest consolidation loan with my bank. This enabled me to take an early settlement with Bamboo and save overall on interest, but I’d not have been in the position to do so without the original Bamboo consolidation loan. The website was clear, easy to use and communication was concise. When it came to settlement, again there were no barriers such as phone calls required, it was 100% online, virtually instant and confirmation communications were with me within minutes.

A company with Integrity

From the moment I filled in my application online I knew I'd done the right thing. Open and honest, no hidden fees and the best part of all great customer service. Its so rare nowadays that the person on the other end of the phone takes the time to listen to you and answer any and all questions. I didn't feel rushed or pressured. Definitely a company I would recommend to anyone who needs them. Reviewed on: 23rd February 2022

Would recommend this company to everyone who needs urgent borrowing, the only reason I didnt give 5 star because the interest could have been a bit lower Reviewed on: 23rd February 2022
