Why Choose Acom
Deciding where to get a loan is not easy, given there are a lot of financial institutions available. Acom presents many advantages in terms of flexibility and the type of services they offer. Here are some of the reasons why you should choose Acom.
Collateral or Loan Co-Maker is Not Required
Not many Filipinos can provide collateral to get approval on their loan applications. Sometimes a co-maker is needed in certain situations. But finding someone else to also sign off on your loan application can be challenging because not many people will be able to take on the liability of somebody else’s loan.
The good thing about Acom is they do not need collateral or a co-maker to give you the approval. Their decision on your loan application is based entirely on the documents you have submitted.
Offers Higher Loan Amount
Financing companies typically offer unsecured loans at a lower amount than most. The logic behind that is reasonable and understandable because only very few companies are willing to take the risk. So the team at Acom checks and verifies the documents that they receive and makes decisions on the maximum loan amount they can provide accordingly.
All approvals take into consideration the loan applicant’s capacity to pay. After all, the borrower should not be paying more than the income they receive or reduce the quality of life they can provide for themselves or their families.
Convenient Online Loan Application
Loan applications can be a tedious process that entails preparing loan requirements and, in some cases, waiting and going back and forth in the branches. When applying for a loan application with Acom, borrowers can have the option to submit their loan applications online. By doing this, borrowers will be able to save the time they have to travel and the waiting time until a representative processes their loan application.
Fast Loan Approval
Acom guarantees loan approval as fast as one business day when you have submitted all the requirements they need. A typical loan application takes up to 7 banking days to process, but with Acom, they will not make you wait long and give you a loan decision right away. This is particularly advantageous for those who have emergencies and require cash immediately.
Loan Applications Can Be Made Through a Branch
If borrowers are not comfortable submitting their loan applications online, they can always visit any of the branches of Acom and complete the loan application with their complete loan requirements. Borrowers will receive notification regarding the status of their loan, whether they submit applications through the branch or not.
You can view a list of their branches and business hours on their website. Currently, they have branches available in Metro Manila and its neighboring provinces. Considering that they had just started operations in the Philippines in 2017, they have been able to open more than 20 branches that are easily accessible to Filipinos.
