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

I needed a loan to help pay for my wedding!

I needed a loan to help pay off my wedding and applying for a loan through bamboo was by far the simplest process. After I’d filled out my application after a short time the loan had been accepted and the money was in my account. The service is trustworthy and simple to use, they send yearly reviews of your account and are easy to get in contact with. Reviewed on: 16th April 2024

When I applied it was no fuss and quick, no issues since declined a top up but that does not diminish the initial service, I go for loyalty so when it is fully repaid I would explore other options Reviewed on: 16th April 2024
