Our review of Bamboo Loans
Bamboo Loans are a Southampton-based lender, set up in 2014. They offer unsecured personal loans of £1000 to £8000, repaid over 1 to 5 years. Bamboo loans exist to help those who maybe cannot be helped by highstreet banks. Although they have a Representative 69.9% APR the rates they offer are tailored to each customer’s circumstances and so will differ by individual.
Reviews for Bamboo Loans online are excellent, TrustPilot has a number of reviews commending the simplicity of their application process, the speed of payout and the efficiency of their staff.
My verdict: Bamboo Loans are a reputable loan provider with all the main product features you’d expect from a modern lender. Praised heavily for their simple application process and friendly customer service you are sure to have a good experience with Bamboo. However, be sure this is the right product for you as if your credit history is squeaky clean there are cheaper options available.

About Bamboo Loans
Southampton-based Bamboo Loans offers online personal unsecured loans. They lend amounts between £1,000 and £8,000 at an advertised Representative 69.9% APR. It is worth noting that if approved, the actual rate you’ll be offered will be determined by your personal circumstances and credit profile.
A Bamboo loan can be used for a variety of things, ranging from home improvements, dealing with an emergency or even consolidating multiple debts into one monthly payment. In order to apply for a loan with Bamboo you must be a UK resident (not from the Channel Islands or Isle of man), at least 18 years old, have a valid UK debit card, not be bankrupt and of course, be able to afford the monthly payments. If you tick those boxes Bamboo, will consider every case individually and will look at your unique circumstances before making a decision. This means if you are yet to build up a good credit history, Bamboo will still consider you for a loan.
