Beware!!! basta huwag lang kayo mag car loan sa BDO (Banco De Oro). Madelelay ka lang ng ilang araw sa payment . nang harass na sa telepono sa bahay mo. di nila mainitindihan na magkaiba ang banking days ng manila at saudi arabia kaya minsan nagkakaroon ng delay sa remittance. tapos ng ma-fully paid ko na yung car loan ko. naghahanap pa ng special power of attorney (stamped by the embassy d2 sa saudi) para ma-irelease ng wffe ko yung CR at OR ng auto ko. P4000 pesos gastos din yun ano..besides layo ng embassy dito. nakakabwiset...so better get your carloan sa BPI (Bank of Philippine Islands) maganda na service, polite pa employees at naiintindihan nila minsan may slight delay sa remittance besides mababa pa ang interest... babalik na ko sa BPI for my next car loan. Its a mistake getting a loan sa BDO. di nila alam kung ano ang corporate identity nila. palibhasa wala pang identitiy kasi ibat ibang bank na ang binili nila at hinde malaman kung ano ang surviving identity...

Partly because we, OFW's are often ostracised if not looked down on acquiring small comforts in life such as vehicle possession. Banks and Car Financing firms decline applications for car/used car loans most often than not. Show -money-first and full scrutiny of financial capabilities which usually takes eternity then rejection. Also because banks and financing firms take part in the interests dilema that suffocates medium-earning OFWs to death. If phillipine pawnshops could drop interests to compete with the market, why can you not? You were partially right on the mentioned recent rise in car sales. Most of my brother-in-arms here in Macao really dare buying handsome ,brand new cars to reward themselves for their jobs well done. Scores of Sta Fe's and starex's can be noticed. As unsung heroes of today, I do hope you will initiate a handsome , reasonable deal for us OFW's. How about a lower price for my burger? like the one you give to Senior citizens? We will be more than grateful for that. And I assure you, more wheels will roll. More power and thank you. Simon Ed Andrade Pit Supervisor Sands Macao Resort and Casino Elizabeth Lee:
