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

Painless Process

Easy to use website, the process was plain and simple. Helpful staff too. Reviewed on: 27th July 2021

Quick and Easy

Applying for this loan was quick and Easy. The funds were transferred into my bank account the next day. I was accepted for the loan and then asked to ring the call centre to do some checks, the call handler was lovely very knowledgeable and couldn’t do enough for me. A really good experience and I wouldn’t use my bank for a personal loan again. Reviewed on: 27th July 2021

Fair and helpful in equal measure

A lot of companies try to entice you with 95% eligibility claims then say no, well not this lot. Easy forms, listeners, and above all a quick and fair response, would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone. Reviewed on: 27th July 2021
