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

Easy to apply for.

Easy to apply for. Everything very clear and data/options available online - view documents, options to change pay date, borrow more, view how much to pay to pay it off sooner. A bit disappointed with limited option of being able to change the pay day. If you are moving jobs frequent, it might be an issue if your pay dates more around significantly.

I obtained a loan through Bamboo and during a recent issue with losing my employment, I missed a payment. I spoke to different employees at Bamboo who dealt with my issue with a wonderful empathetic nature and was not charged a late fee. They offered to put my account on hold whilst I waited for funds to make the payment. Any time I have dealt with one of their employees, they have made the experience flawless and personalised.
