Review of the Bamboo Loans, Personal loan:

Better than other competitors!

4
I needed the funds to help with a project I was working on so bamboo came to the rescue after researching for different providers. Ironically bamboo offered me an interest rate better than my bank and also competitors which was very appealing. I’ve never had an issue so I cannot comment on customer service but when I first applied for my loan I got my funds the same day which is spectacular. The online portal is very simple and easy to navigate, it’s not complicated which is great for me as I have astigmatism. Bamboo also have an option to top up your loan if you want extra funds after you’ve paid x amount of months. You can also pay off the loan in full without a penalty which I find generous as some competitors charge a fee for paying early. TLDR: all in all im impressed with bamboo so far and never had any problems, interest rate is fair and you get paid within the day (usually) I’ll be sure to use bamboo again!

I’m a happy customer of Bamboo Loans

I’m a happy customer of Bamboo Loans and just wanted to share my experience. From start to finish, the process was smooth, straightforward, and transparent. The application was easy to complete, and I received a decision quickly, which was a huge relief during a stressful time. What stood out to me most was the customer service. The team was friendly, helpful, and didn’t make me feel judged – something that’s really important when dealing with personal finances. Everything was clearly explained, including the repayment terms, and I felt supported throughout. I’ve been keeping up with my repayments without any issues, and it’s been reassuring to know I’m dealing with a company that treats its customers with respect. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Bamboo Loans to anyone looking for a responsible lender. Reviewed on: 22nd May 2025
