@Apple Bees - You are in luck. Their policy is "If you want to avoid the penalties, pay the lump sum". You don't even have to negotiate. They will simply give you the statement, you give them a cheque and voila you are one debt down!!!


Hey, just stumbled upon this thread an it sounds just like what I need. Here's my situation: I too was saddled with a lot of liability by way of accumulated monthly fines. In fact, these were erroneous but I never had any success contesting the fact so I'm stuck with them like that. However, I've been paying diligently for the last 10 months now. I'm willing to give these guys a lump sum if they can waiver the fines. Is it accurate to expect to pay the principle plus interest accrued to date less the much I've already remitted? If some one knows, please advice me. Thanks.

If you are still stuck just go and tell them you have just got a job. They will remove the penalty. Check out Mr Lengoiboni or Mbotu at repayments t assist you.

I have emailed this Michael Mbotu fellow three times now with no reply and yet he is supposed to be my loan manager. Could anyone with information regarding the policies around paying lump sum please advise me? I elucidated my situation two posts ago in this thread. I live away from Nairobi and HELB is yet to open a branch here in my coun(d)y. smile I suppose I could call if all else fails...

My experience is rather different and very encouraging.

I was not servicing my loan at all. I contacted my loan officer (not manager) by email (because phonecalls have no record of what was said) and;

1. Explained why I could not pay before and attached some documents to support my reason.
2. Offered to clear all of it lumpsome immediately.
3. Politely requested for penalties to be waived.

My officer responded within 48 hrs with the good news that my loan manager had accepted and approved my prayers, provided I cleared before the end of the month, after which the loan status is subject to further penalty.

I paid immediately, got a certificate of clearance on the same day and a letter of congratulations a month later.

They are amazingly efficient and understanding. Nothing to fear.

If you pay lumpsome the penalties are waived.

Will this HELB clearance issue affect the Kajuras(Councilors), Youth reps, women reps etc or its only affecting those vying for the posts of Bunge and above?

What if I have been paying my monthly fee as per their request..Will I be barred to contest if I haven't cleared the Loan?
