Struggling Homeowners Need to Talk to Lenders

Tagged in: Sites-To-Cite — admin @ 4:02 am

Over the past couple of years homeowners in the UK have faced severe problems when it comes to keeping on top of their mortgage loan repayments, with one problem after another affecting their ability to pay. Between August 2006 and July 2007 a series of five interest rate hikes of 0.25% each left many homeowners on variable rate mortgage struggling to make repayments. However, in July 2007 until December 2007 the base rate came to a standstill, although it was still high and therefore homeowners were still having problems with repayments.

Thankfully in December of last year the Bank of England cut the base rate by 0.25%, and there have been a further two 0.25% base rate cuts this year. However, whilst this should have eased the pressure for homeowners in many cases this has not happened. Despite the base rate cuts the cost of borrowing has continued to rise due to the effects of the global credit crunch. In addition to this credit conditions have become far tighter, making it difficult for homeowners to switch to a more cost effective deal. And to make matters worse the cost of living, such as petrol and food, as well as a range of bills have shot up in cost, causing real strain in household finances.

One official from the Council of Mortgage Lenders has stated that anyone that is struggling with their mortgage needs to ensure that they contact their lenders as soon as possible in order to discuss a suitable solution, adding that there are a number of solutions that lenders can offer. He said: “They might consider re-scheduling the loan, and there are possibilities for extending the term of the loans which could reduce payments. All of these will depend on what’s suitable in the individual’s circumstances, the lender and the borrower need to sit down and work out a plan that fits the individual’s circumstances.”

Asian Institute of E-Commerce Alaminos Campus

You can find Asian Institute of E-Commerce Alaminos Campus at Siapno Bldg. Marcos Ave. Brgy. Palamis with contact number (075) 551-6263.

They have been successful to have a surprising 500+ enrollees on their first school year last 2004 and instantly been considered as a competitive school in Alaminos (in terms of population).

Their first main attraction was their first marketing strategy wherein they offered scholarships which is a 100% discount on tuition fee which is by the way just P99 and they have been generous enough to cover all their students with these scholarship. But take note, you still have to pay certain laboratory fees and other miscellaneous fees for each trimester.

The following are the Tesda authorized courses they are offering:

Course Authorized Duration
Diploma in Computer Education 2 Years
Diploma in Electronics Commerce 2 Years
Diploma in Hotel and Restaurant Management 1 Year
Diploma in Information Technology 2 Years
Health Care Services NC II 2 Years

AIE is part of the AIE College in Calasiao, Pangasinan, which has also several campuses in the Northern Luzon. AIE Alaminos branch in particular, is known for their all air-conditioned classrooms and “scholarships”, but aside from these, as far as I know, they also have reputable instructors, good curriculum and extra-curricular activities. But should still work harder to improve and complete their facilities to obtain quality hands-on education suitable for their courses.

Anyway, aside from some controversies over scholarships, accreditation and other sensitive issues that has tarnished its reputation, AIE is still struggling to live up to its vision, that is to give affordable and yet quality education to students.

And, as we are always saying education is really not affordable. Scholarships and discounts are really part of a school’s marketing strategy. Just be sure that you had absolutely understood their terms and conditions before enrolling.

This post is just done to at least help students in choosing a school where they could enroll in Alaminos City, it is not intended to promote neither to degrade a certain school. If you believe that some opinions are not acceptable as a form to improve quality education in Alaminos City, just contact us and we would do appropriate action. Thanks… :-)

AMA Computer Learning Center in Alaminos City

Tagged in: ACLC, Schools — admin @ 3:00 am

AMA Computer Learning Center (ACLC) Alaminos City is located at the Second Floor of Bannet Building in Marcos Ave. It had started several years ago and is a part of the AMA Education System.

According to TESDA Website ACLC Alaminos City is authorized to offer the following programs:

Course Authorized Duration

FYI, since the courses in ACLC are qualified under the technical-vocational category or the full curriculum diploma programs, they are still under TESDA and not CHED.

ACLC in Alaminos City claims to offer affordable quality IT education, (and promises immediate employment opportunity).

So, to the Ilocanos of the West, if you prefer to take IT Education, you could always visit their school and do your inquiries personally. The population of students in ACLC is not that high.

Well, just a piece of my opinion, its best to understand carefully their payment system, because education is not really that affordable.

You should also put in to your mind that, it is always best to receive failing grades if you really deserve it. And, just like in all schools, students should not always depend on their instructors if they want to learn, ‘coz it might just lead to disappointments. Once enrolled, nothing is wrong if you would insist to use but the best facilities, that’s what you have paid for in the first place. :-)

This post is just done to at least help students in choosing a school where they could enroll in Alaminos City, it is not intended to promote neither to degrade a certain school. If you believe that some opinions are not acceptable as a form to improve quality education in Alaminos City, just contact us and we would do appropriate action. Thanks… :-)
