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

Helpful and knowledgeable agent

I recently needed to contact and the agent was friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. They were so kind and able to help me with my enquiry. My dad took his life and i have some unexpected bills while i clear his property so needed a payment holiday. I can honestly say that the agent helped me and made this awful time easier to cope with. I like the easy to use online platform. Reviewed on: 15th February 2026

When I was long term off sick and my financial situation changed for a few months, Bamboo was very quick to help me manage my payments, I felt so relieved because in 5 years that I have been with them i had never failed a payment. Reviewed on: 15th February 2026
