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

Horrendous company with no compassion.

Horrendous company with no compassion. It won't matter if you don't have any arrears, if you've made every payment over 2 years , but if you PAY 8 days late, this lender has no problem putting it on your credit file that you are in arrears!! And then your credit file is screwed for 6 years. If you want to take that risk with this lender, then good luck, but there are far better companies that don't treat YOUR CUSTOM in this way. The customer services department aren't interested, they don't care that you've made every payment. Avoid this lender at all costs. No other lender would do that to you after paying late by 8 days.
