Quick and easy

Very nice people and very quick ... always willing to help and explain everything Reviewed on: 7th June 2018

89.9 % APR.. Loan sharks, your days are numbered!

Yes, I was approved and yes the application was easy but come on, nearly 90% annual interest is hard to ignore. What this equates too is not only day-light robbery, but means that in just two years a loan of £1300 is hit with over £1000 in interest alone. To be fair though, I could not fault Bamboo in the service offered and up-front clarity of what I was agreeing to but come on, even thumb-breaking Tony charges less and he comes to your door to collect. That said though I took the money, of course, but it still stings a bit when I look at 3% APR's offered by my own bank with whom I have been in the black with for over 12 years.. but,so what.... I just bury my head and live in the moment. Reviewed on: 7th June 2018

Great service

Bamboo being a great and reliable loan prover, had accepted my request in a really impressive time. I was seriously stressing about my financial situation, with all my bills going crazy, my pay taking a while to go into my bank, bamboo was a great and supportive outcome. They accepted my loan, approved it and contacted me to update me on the procedure and the steps. Great customer service and a very reasonable APR. Reviewed on: 6th June 2018

Abserlutly brilliant service, could not fault it at all, I woke up one morning with messages of the bank about some really important bills coming out the next day I just did not have the money to pay, due to job circumstance's. I really needed the money to pay so bamboo loans was the best deal I could find an the fastest service, the money was in my account within 5 hours.... Reviewed on: 6th June 2018
