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

Bamboo came through for me when I least expected them. Accessing loan from them was fast, convenient and excellent. It was my last hope after being turned down by more than 5 loan companies and it took me less than 8 hours from the time of application to granting my loan loan request. Reviewed on: 19th April 2024

I don't think any loan company exists that gives new users loan with such ease as bamboo. Plain and simple! They doesn't exist! I had to check my account multiple times after receving the loan to confirm if the loan money was real. They never spammed my emails or phone number with ads or anything even after approval. They also didn't give out my details to third party advertisers...and now I'm paying back the loan monthly as agreed! Thank you so much bamboo. Reviewed on: 19th April 2024

Easy application process, all online

I had bad credit so was pleased to get the loan with Bamboo at a manageable rate. The application process was all online and once approved the money quickly arrived in my account. If I have had questions they are quickly answered through the chat option. I topped up my loan last year and the process was really simple, with fair rates for me. Reviewed on: 19th April 2024
