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

Easy and safe

5
Easy and safe access to your loan account so you can check how long do you have left. It was an easy process getting the loan and receiving it in my bank account, also starting to pay the loan one month after is a nice touch. Communications are not on top which is aprecciated. Safe to say I wish not to need a loan ever again but that's a personal statement. Reviewed on: 25th May 2024

Good if you need a loan fast, but painful interests rates, equal to paying 50% back on top. Reviewed on: 25th May 2024

From the start i have never had a problem , I have never had to speak to customer service as everything has just been plain sailing but I have no doubt they would be exceptional, they are honest from the start about interest and prices Reviewed on: 25th May 2024
