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

They are so easy to deal with.

They are so easy to deal with. Application was very straight forward. Quick processing times and money was deposited quickly. I’ve never had any issues with repayments or their online portal and so have had no need to use their customer service, but no doubt that it would be great as well. I will say, the direct debit isn’t really a direct debit, more like a card payment and so if you’re like me, keeping your money in pots or savings, and your card is charged with not enough in, I do have to make a manual payment. But they don’t charge a late repayment fee for this I think as I do it immediately. Reviewed on: 11th March 2025

Process of applying was easy. The amounts displayed were clear and easy to understand in terms of interest and monthly amounts. Website is overall very easy to use and understand. Money was in my account within a couple of hours after signing. Very good loan company considering my not so perfect credit history. Email reminders of upcoming payments are also handy so you don't forget the payment will e taken. Reviewed on: 11th March 2025
