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

They Actually Care!

I was stupid in my younger years with my finances and got myself in a bit of situation. I could afford payments etc, but these last few months I have just wanted to get everything in to a single payment each month. Not wanting to go down "Debt Management", I wanted to just clean it all up and help my rating at the same time. Most if not all companies said "No" regardless of my Salary etc, they just saw a number and said "No". Bamboo though have actually said "Yes" and I am very thankful for that, as I am now right where I want to be, a single payment that will help my rating and it's a easy payment each month. The whole process was done and dusted in a few days as I applied at a weekend, but by the Monday afternoon the funds were in my bank and I was paying stuff off. Thank You Bamboo for actually helping!

A simple application process and fast decision. Clear information at all stages and the payments made via your debit card on the same day every month helps with budgeting. Reviewed on: 23rd February 2022
