How to repay a UnionBank home loan?

Like the auto loan, UnionBank home loan borrowers can choose from three payment options. They can pay their monthly amortizations at any UnionBank branch or by issuing UnionBank post-dated checks. Borrowers can also use the auto-debit arrangement (ADA) function, which requires them to designate their accounts and define the amount and payment schedule. The payments will be withdrawn automatically from their UnionBank savings or checking accounts every month.
