according to my understanding, agency will not trust the phil, they will ask them to pay all before come to HK. NOrmally they will borrow the money from Phil financial agency or sell the land(if her family is farmer). Agency told me they won't pay after they come HK, so they have to pay before come. Indos are better, they will pay after come.

the maid just come to hong kong nearly 3 months. As she is a new maid in hong kong. She should pay the agency fee about $8000. The agency say she can paid $2000 every month. But my maid doesn't pay, s ... [/quote]
I think it depend on your agency policy, my agency tell me when my maid are come to HK, they will arrange financial company to them for the agency fee, but this is not our business, that is between maid and financial co business. So, I think you can ask the agency or financial co contact your maid (mobile phone) directly, no need to involve it.
Honestly, this agency fee is not fair for the maid, but they need job, we can't help them.
Can't you take her directly to the agent to sort out the loan repayment? That is what I did with my new maid.
If she's unwilling to repay her loan then what about paying her next wages in front of the agent's and then the agent can demand the repayment from her straight away.
I help my Indo. maid to pay 7X$3,000 to the financial company directly. I transfer the balance to her bank account only. I recieve a letter and card when the maid came which showed she'd loan the money from them. The agent told me to do so. I think you'd better follow this method (before sending the money to the financial company, pls advise yr maid first). If yr maid reject , for me, I'll fire her.
1. dishonest - people no honest=no use
2. bring trouble to me
I think she'll not report to the Phil. immg. because it may not easy to find another job for her. All agency should have bridge to know this case. No money, who will help her to find another employer???-(
I usually pay my maid in cash cheque which she cashes in over the counter and takes out straight away.
You can try taking your maid to the bank to cash in her cheque first before taking her for a surprised visit at the agent to sort out her loan repayment. She won't be able to escape then if she has money on her.

thanks for all of you ideas. I will terminate her. As some mums says that it is truth. few days before she already shout back to me and says that if I don't like her I can terminate her but she will n ...
I just have the same experience like you. I hired my maid thru Tak-S which has arranged financial plan for my maid with a finance company.
My maid has promised to pay around $3000 per month for 4 months. She hasn't paid in full installment starting the 2nd installment. I don't know until the finance company called me. I hate Tak-S giving out my mobile without my consent. So the finance company called me all the times.
My maid said that she has sent money back home so that she sent less than she has promised. I am so pissed off since she does not think it's a problem who don't respect contract and agreement (especially she has told so many lies that I can trust her no more). Tak-S won't help on getting contract copy (as maid said that she does not have one which I know she tells lie probably)
At last, I need to follow up with the finance company, pay installment at 7-11 for my maid and fax the receipt to them with follow up calls. I am pissed off as it's my maid's duty but I have to take care of. I have no choice but to settle this quickly or I will get fire if they call me at work every day.
