None of these has meaningful international accreditation. Read my post on the sister site of this website: bit.ly/ValueMBAs

If these are your only options I would suggest not doing an MBA at all, and instead do some of the Coursera MBA specializations until you can afford to transition into the iMBA. Seriously, you'd be better off not spending any money at all and taking advantage of free resources than pursue any of these options.

Alternatively, there are a number of budget options you might explore:

It's a very much better choice than the options your mention. Of course the perfect fit requires a closer study of your specific goals.

As far as the 'right choice' is concerned, it's hard to say. Although it is better than the other schools you listed above—in that it does have international accreditation—the 'right choice' would depend on what you would want to do with this degree.

Keep in mind that for some potential applicants, the 'right choice' may be not to do an MBA at all.

This is a very good point. A lot of posters coming to this board have vague or non-existent goals or not really thought about the return on their investent (financial or otherwise) yet somehow expect an MBA to be some sort of magic wand to improve their career.

Really after I got confirmation email from Manchester Metropolitan University for the MBA , and after the comment of the MBA hipster maybe i want to change to a Master in marketing or Digital Marketing through the distance learning.
I found Glasgow University also there is Falmouth University and at the end there is Kozminski University in poland.

Falmouth and Glasgow universities are lowly ranked in the UK. You would probably be better off doing a specialist professional marketing course with the Chartered Institute of Marketing for example. Their level 7 courses are equivalent to a masters degree.

This still depends on your goals but Glasgow is a ancient and respectable Russell Group university with a serious academic profile while Falmouth is not.

Sorry, I thought you were referring to Glasgow Caledonian university. As Duncan says, Glasgow is a member of the prestigous Russell Group in the UK.
