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

Getting a loan couldn’t be easier.

Applying for and getting a loan with Bamboo was really easy and at a time when I needed to quickly get a loan. I even got a top up when I needed it. The whole process was simple from start to finish and I had the money really quickly. I would definitely go to Bamboo as my first port of call if I ever need a loan in the future Reviewed on: 25th February 2026

Understanding, Helpful and Supportive

Bamboo have always been hugely supportive, even during COVID, they were keen to help when my then employer, suddenly reduced my working hours and wages.. Bamboo understood and worked with me to provide a financial resolution that gave me the space I needed, for which I will be eternally grateful Reviewed on: 25th February 2026

Clear and easy

Easy application, all the information about the loan was clear and easy to understand, no issues with any loan payments and it's easy to keep track of your payments and how much is remaining. Had to change payment card once and had to speak to customer service to do this, it was quick and easy to do. Reviewed on: 25th February 2026
