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 was very worried about taking a loan.. It is not something I normally do. However I had no choice. When I researched lenders Bamboo came out as the most trustworthy. Friendly and thorough.. I hope you win. You deserve too. I was also awarded a payment holiday.. I was so relieved. Thank you and good luck... Reviewed on: 3rd June 2020

Bamboo put me back in control of my life

5
My debts were spiralling out of control. Bamboo didn't judge me based on my credit score and were very helpful and kind. The process was easy and the loan was approved very quickly with me and my guarantor. Everyone was so polite and explained everything and I even got a call before my money was paid out, to check I understood my agreement and that the payments would be affordable. Bamboo went the extra mile for me and I now am debt free. Fantastic company and so much better than Amigo and other guarantor loan companies :) Reviewed on: 3rd June 2020

Best loan company
