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

Throughout my experience with Bamboo, they have been understanding if my needs and circumstances changed and were willing to work with me to figure of what would work well. They weren’t understanding of hard times, we’re excellent in communicating with me and we’re understanding when things went wrong. I would highly recommend Bamboo Reviewed on: 3rd May 2024

Easy process throughout, no complaints from me

Easy to set up, received payments quickly, user friendly portal, 0 complaints from me. Easy to set payment dates, no hidden fees or amounts required to be paid. Money taken every month on schedule. Wish it was a direct debit rather than a card payment but its a minor issue Reviewed on: 3rd May 2024
