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

I have never experienced such an easy and friendly personal finance company. From the offset they were friendly informative and supportive. If only all companies would treat their customers this way. Fantastic company would highly recommend. Would be great if you did mortgages your ethos would definitely be a welcome change from some of the mainstream providers. Keep up the good work Reviewed on: 27th July 2021

So I got my self in to a sticky situation and thought I had no out. Then thankfully I saw and advert for this company spoke to a verry helpful team and with no hassle managed to come to an arranged agreement which litraly took me out of the dark and in to the light. Will 100% be recommending the company and will be the first company I come to if for any reason I end up needing help again. Reviewed on: 27th July 2021
