Top up an existing loan quickly with the new Bamboo top up
At Bamboo, we’re very excited to be launching a new product – the chance to top up an existing loan. With our Bamboo top up loan you may be able to borrow more money from us . If you’re not sure what a top-up loan is, you can get yourself up to speed with our quick guide to additional borrowing.
