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

Every dealing with bamboo has been friendly, helpful and very professional. Always looking out for the customers best interests, and helping where they can. Would highly recommend to friends and family 100% easiest loan company I have dealt with over the years, and repayments are manageable with good interest rates. I am a very very happy customer and will continue to use them when needed in the future Reviewed on: 21st June 2019

I've taken out a personal loan with bamboo. The forms were easy and understandable, the loan payments were shown before you sign, the interest was reasonable for the loan and repaying is quick and easy. A good honest company that's trustworthy. Reviewed on: 21st June 2019

Needs must

In ideal world we would not be in a position to have to use some loan companies as they charge too much interest etc. But life isn't easy and when you're down I am afraid there is no support from high street banks building societies. Bamboo loans offered a loan when nobody else would. Service was quick, effiicient and with user friendly systems and above all for me non judgemental. When needs must, brilliant at Bamboo loans.

I applied for loan in need was nice to get response online instead of trying to get on phone when you work to answer call or bring your statements into branch, they check it all and are quick to answer what's most important this age and time. Recommended Reviewed on: 21st June 2019
