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

So easy to apply for and money was transferred quickly. My repayments are affordable and there is always someone on the end of the phone if I ever need help. Absolutely brilliant. Reviewed on: 25th April 2019

The best I've dealt with

Bamboo have by far been my favourite loan providers. I have always received friendly and helpful service, I feel secure and know that my financial situation is in good hands. They have a great online area so it's always easy to find how much i still owe and I get sufficient communication about my payment each month. The guarentor process is also much easier than competitors. Would deffo recommend. Reviewed on: 25th April 2019

Refreshing with a common sense approach

The service from Bamboo is an exemplary demonstration of what is unfortunately lacking within the majority if the financial sector. Great customer service, no underhand aggressive tactics in the event of unforeseen struggles. I went through a really stressful time due to a bereavement and everything was sorted quickly and professionally. Reviewed on: 25th April 2019
