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 were there when I needed them most. The process was simple and easy to apply for and really helped. A close relative to myself had passed away and I was short on cash for funeral. The loan through bamboo has helped me to not worry about that and allowed me to split into affordable payments Reviewed on: 18th April 2024

The process with Bamboo to get a loan was so simple and quick. I was able to complete the process in less than an hour, and the money was in my account same day. am able also to communicate with them in the easiest way through various channels, and they they are always willing to listen and help. I actually wish I could borrow more from them, because they are far better than my other lender. Reviewed on: 18th April 2024
