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

Even with Poor Credit Score Bamboo helped me!

I had a poor credit rating and no other lender would offer me a loan but Bamboo did which i'm grateful for. The loan from Bamboo allowed me to consolidate debts in to one manageable payment which helped me mentally. Reviewed on: 25th March 2025

I had built up alot of credit card dept, I was able to get a bamboo loan and now only have one monthly payment coming out of my bank account. Bamboo loans application was easy and the loan was paid into my bank account soon after. Reviewed on: 25th March 2025

I got approved and the money is good, the repayment rates are a bit high like the interest. I think instead of trying to fleece customers so much it should be somewhere a bit lower. manageable payments however extortionate interest rates. Reviewed on: 25th March 2025
