Review of the Bamboo Loans, Personal loan:

Bamboo Loans: Excellent, Efficient & Easy Loan Provider

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

World class lending

Phenomenal service, great rates, I am really pleased I opted to go with them and would gladly recommend to all friends and family. Bamboo are a marvellous lending option. I’ve also found the customer service when I have needed to get in touch to be frankly flawless. Attentive, considerate staff who are keen to assist you in any way they can.

Exceptional Service and Transparent Financing

I can't recommend Bamboo highly enough. Their application process was straightforward and transparent, with no hidden fees or surprises. I was impressed by the speed of approval; within hours of applying, their professional and attentive team had responded with a tailored loan option. Their competitive interest rates and flexible repayment terms made them stand out as an affordable and reliable choice. Moreover, their exceptional customer service sets them apart from others in the industry. The representatives were knowledgeable and always available to assist with any queries. Overall, Bamboo offers an outstanding service, making them my go-to choice for any future financing needs. Reviewed on: 18th April 2024

At that time, I was looking for a relatively big amount of money to loan from Bamboo. I was not sure if I will be accepted at first, but after completing the application process, that gave me a bit of hope. Customer service was always there for me, clarifying any concerns I had.

Very high Apr rates, but will offer a loan

Very high Apr rates, but one of the only places willing to give people with low credit scores a chance at a loan. They should offer lower apr rates to people who have no missed payments on their Experian. Reviewed on: 18th April 2024
