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

Saved me in my time of need when my rating was low

I had a low credit rating because I got into a few debts I couldnt get out of but Bamboo laons were basically my saviours. They ran the necessary checks and sent me the money in about 24 hours or so. The best part is that they reviewed my account and offered me a top up on that if I ever needed it. Wow. I definitely recommend them. Thank you. Reviewed on: 25th April 2019

Saved me

I was close to being homeless from stupid mistakes in my youth and bamboo saved me. They allowed me to consolidate all my debt into 1 much smaller easier to pay monthly payment. If not for bamboo I don’t think I’d be here. The staff are always friendly and answer any questions and doubts u have. Reviewed on: 25th April 2019

Great company

Bamboo went out of their way and bent over backwards for me to help me at a time I really needed it. I contacted 5 other companies previous to them who had no intention of helping. My experience has been great. Their customer service is out of this world. Coming from a genuine customers. Never had a problem. Best of luck to the organisation moving forward.

I applied with bamboo loans a few months ago, after being constantly declined by other loan companies. Bamboo had me do a quick survey to see if I was eligible. I was successful. Great customer service and very quick process. Got me out of a lot of debt. The monthly payment. Are not expensive at all which I have being paying without missing any payments. Highly recommend!
