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

I was having so.e financial problems and thus couldnt make my payments. And at the same time I changed jobs and my pay type switched from once a month to weekly. I called up the customer service and they were very helpful and understanding. They managed to help me sort out my payments by giving me a breathing space for a few months so i could sort things out, and they also changed my payments to weekly so that I could get back on track. And keep paying back. I have used bamboo previously and they are always able to help when needed Reviewed on: 21st February 2026

I needed a loan for medical expenses that Bamboo accepted. The process was very smooth and easy - I recently had difficulties paying and the customer service was so excellent and provided me with a few options that were very suitable for my situation. They were very helpful and non judgemental Reviewed on: 20th February 2026
