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

Bamboo helped me with a credit very fast and easy. I needed just my payslip and I had the money in less than 24 hours. They helped me to raise my credit score. Thank you, Bamboo! Reviewed on: 27th June 2018

this is the 3rd unsecured loan I have used from this business and each and every time it has been so easy and professional to deal with. I have settled my previous 2 loans early and even then it has been so easy and professional. I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a great professional and experienced and easy approach for any assistance on taking out a loan. Reviewed on: 27th June 2018
