Review of the Bamboo Loans, Personal loan:

Bamboo Loans: Excellent, Efficient & Easy Loan Provider

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

Excellent

Customer service was very nice and it was quick and Easy When you’re processing the application And And I like the fact that you can top up before paying off your loan Reviewed on: 3rd May 2018

Easy application with excellent service

I required a loan but had a very poor credit rating at the time. Although Bamboo was a little expensive they were one of the few companies willing to take a risk considering my credit score. Their after care service has been excellent. Reviewed on: 3rd May 2018

Loan rating.

The whole process was very easy so sort out and done quickly. The website gives you good access to your information, one drawback is that I couldn't find what my current balance was and what was left to pay if I wanted to settle early. Reviewed on: 3rd May 2018

Friendly, professional and approachable.
